What Others Are Saying:
“As a teacher, this concept can benefit many students who struggle with mental health issues. I would love to use season 1 as a teaching tool in my classroom.” — Amanda, Educator
“Super CJ is an excellent series and promotes the principles of self-esteem building through a very entertaining story. It will continue to serve as an effective tool in promoting mental health and wellness among youth in an inclusive manner.” — Dr. Cheryl Bailey, Child Psychologist
Why Our Children Need This
According to studies, 80% of children ages 5-11 are watching YouTube. The videos consumed by these children on YouTube are devoid of diversity and perpetuate negative racial stereotypes. Just Like Me TV will produce Season 2 of Super CJ, expanding on the themes of empowerment, resilience, and mental wellness, while providing positive representation on YouTube for Black and Brown children.
