The Kids Online Health and Safety Task Force (KOHS) has released a comprehensive report detailing recommendations and best practices for safer social media and online platform use among youth. This report, which references the Winston Center’s research, aligns with the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to tackling the youth mental health crisis.
The report highlights the risks and benefits of social media on the health, safety, and privacy of young people, offers conversation starters for families, and recommended practices for industry. It also outlines a research agenda and suggests future work, including initiatives for the federal government.
