Yes, Seventeen Magazine is fun, with a focus on celebrities, culture, dating, fashion and more. At the same time, their editors and authors also help promote good mental health among youth.

For example, today the website features a campaign encouraging young women to work against the pressure to be perfect. This health promotion campaign features Demi Lovato and the motto “Love is Louder Than The Pressure to be Perfect” and uses survey data to go beyond anecdotes.

As another example, the Seventeen website provides information on how to help friends when they are struggling with stress or pressures. The post relies on the Jed Foundation (preventing suicide and reducing emotional distress) for what to look for and how to approach friends to help them.
