About This Project

Summary

Young people are facing mental health challenges at record rates and the people in their lives are the first line of support. But MTV research found that while young people want to support their friends, nearly 70% don’t know how. That’s why we teamed up with Active Minds to develop the new “stop, drop and roll” for how to provide emotional support for our loved ones when they need us. It’s called A.S.K. - Acknowledge, Support, Keep-In-Touch. Because the best way to help is to A.S.K.

Goals & Objectives

Position young people to feel confident navigating difficult conversations about mental health. Meet them where they are on social, at their schools and at youth-focused events to introduce them to A.S.K. and help them feel prepared to provide support the next time someone in their life needs them.

Results & Impact

The insight that drove the development of A.S.K. is that nearly 70% of young people don’t know how to provide emotional support. After being exposed to A.S.K., 72% say they feel more prepared. With 28M views and 1.3M engagements and counting, A.S.K. is closing the peer support knowledge gap.
