The U.S. surgeon general has called on Congress to require warning labels for social media platforms and their effects on youth mental health. Caminar CEO, Mark Cloutier, has shared the need to identify the risks social media poses, “We can no longer overlook the abundance of warning signs and risks to adolescent mental health posed by social media. With up to 95% of youth ages 13 to 17 using a social media platform, the issue has become so concerning that the Surgeon General issued a warning. Yet the warning signs continue to mount."
