Caden's introduction to advocacy began as a student council leader in the British Virgin Islands 🇻🇬
Today, the 18-year-old works closely with @letsunpackitco as the mental health focal point for his territory.

It's disheartening to see how hate thrives on social media.
Let's remember that behind every screen name is a real person with feelings.
Let's choose empathy over hatred, kindness over cruelty, and understanding over judgment.
Let's strive for a social media landscape where differences are respected, opinions are heard, and conversations are constructive.
We can disagree without being disrespectful.

🔎 Examples of harmful marketing targeting kids show us that we must regulate these practices to create healthier environments for children. Youth can lead the way in putting people over profit. Let's involve them in this conversation - Danielle Walwyn @HealthCaribbean @cap2030org at @PMNCH Global Forum for Adolescents
