Pinterest’s Post

At Pinterest, we’re committed to creating an inspirational and positive online experience for everyone, especially young people. Gen Z represents nearly half of Pinterest’s monthly users and supporting and safeguarding the mental health of young people both online and offline is important to us. Today, we're honored to announce the launch of the Youth Mental Health Corps - a public-private collaboration between Pinterest, Schultz Family Foundation and AmeriCorps to recruit and train young adults to serve as teen mental health navigators in schools and communities across the US. During their service, members will have the opportunity to earn credentials to continue their journey into a mental health career path. The pilot will kickoff this year in 11 states and the application for those interested in becoming a Youth Mental Health Corps member is now open at https://lnkd.in/d2uQm3SJ We’re proud to be a founding partner of the nation’s first #YouthMentalHealthCorps, and encourage others to join us! #MentalHealthIsHealth Axios

Today, we rang the NYSE bell to mark Pinterest’s five year anniversary as a public company. We haven’t just come a long way since our IPO – we’ve worked to transform the online landscape since our founding fourteen years ago. As a personal space where you can visualize your future, save your favorite ideas and shop what you see, we are helping Pinterest users bring their dreams to life in a positive and uplifting environment. Thank you to our amazing team at Pinterest for making this journey possible. We are in a new era at Pinterest: building an inclusive place on the internet for over half a billion users around the world each month. 📌
