This document summarizes key findings from a report on the impact of social media on adolescent behavioral health in California. It finds that most teens use social media daily, with texting and social networking being most common. While social media allows connection and support, it can also pose risks like cyberbullying, privacy issues, and mental health impacts. The report recommends that parents, schools, and organizations be aware of both benefits and risks of social media use, and provide resources and education to help teens use it positively. It also discusses considerations for using social media in mentoring, including maintaining strong boundaries while allowing connection outside of in-person meetings.

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.

13. The Digital Divide
There has been a closing of the access gap for some populations using new technologies.
• Teen internet access is highest among White teens with college-educated parents and
household incomes above $50,000.
• Black and Latino teens are now just as likely as White teens to create a social network profile.
• The amount of time teens spend using media daily has risen sharply, especially among Blacks
and Latinos.
• Black and Latino youth are also the heaviest consumers of media content via the cell phone.
• Rates of use is low for low-income, rural youth in California:
• <10% own computers
• Teens less likely to own their own cell phones.
14. Recommendations of Report
For Parents and Caregivers:
• Awareness
• Engagement
• Respect for privacy and empowerment
“Discussing media content with teens is more effective than
prohibiting access, in reducing the amount of personal
information disclosed.”
15. Recommendations of Report
For Community:
• Technological solutions Internet providers and social networking sites need to
keep working with parents and policy makers to develop safe technologies for teens.
• Health providersMedical and mental health providers need to include routine
screenings to assess risk for depression that consider a teen’s social media use.
• Schoolsneed to update media literacy guidelines to include information on
successful new media use, online risks, and education about laws that pertain to
them.
• Non profits need to maximize the opportunity to reach teens through social
networking.
• ResearchEvaluation research is needed on the success of social media-based
interventions, particularly those focusing on urban and rural teens from low income
families and those with poor home environments.
16. Key Questions:
What are your general thoughts about what
we just learned?
What does this information mean for

networking websites to benefit teens and young adults:

• Web resources for seeking information on healthy/responsible sexual lifestyles, including
testimonials about lifestyle choices by teens and celebrities, and videos in Spanish
(http://www.teensource.org).
• National campaign to prevent relationship abuse, and “That’s Not Cool Callout Cards” (e-cards)
that teens can send to friends and partners (www.Thatsnotcool.com).
• A website where GLBT teens can find videos of other youth and individuals with encouraging
messages about making it through the difficult teen years, especially regarding harassment
and bullying (www.Itgetsbetter.org )

requests
Note that mentees’ parents/guardians may monitor your public profile
22. Tips, Tools and
Recommendations, cont’d
Mentor programs may discuss privacy and safety on online
forums:
Create “group” pages that only invited members can join or view

Mentoring organizations can create Facebook fan pages, blogs, or YouTube
channels to connect with mentees rather than personal pages
23. Tips, Tools and
Recommendations, cont’d
Mentors: assist/advise mentees about how to protect
their own privacy:
Monitor whether mentees are spending too much time online, especially in
inappropriate chat rooms

is no way to “take it back.”
Discuss importance of keeping passwords private
Supplement parents’ advice for safety and privacy

Recommendations, cont’d
Tips for utilizing online video:
Take video of activities with mentee and post online, showing you’re proud of
them.
Help youth produce their own videos, music recordings, etc.
Teach youth how to effectively use online communication, and when not to.
Video chat (Skype, Facetime) with mentees
25. Tips, Tools and
Recommendations, cont’d
Tips for positive relationships within social media:
