by: Tannya Joaquin Posted: Sep 22, 2021 / 02:42 PM HST / Updated: Sep 22, 2021 / 02:42 PM HST The Child & Adolescent Mental Health Division (CAMHD) provides mental health services free of charge for eligible children and youth in Hawaii who have severe emotional and/or behavioral challenges. Services include assessment, case management, and an array of therapeutic supports provided in the home and community, or temporary out-of-home placements. We make every effort to provide culturally sensitive, child- and family-centered services, and include the youth and family in all aspects of the service planning and treatment decisions. Although suicide is relatively uncommon in youth and young adults it remains one of the leading causes of preventable death in these age groups. Suicide rates have increased nationally for youth and young adults over the last 15 years and Hawaii is no exception to this trend. So, even though Hawaii’s youth are generally quite healthy, mentally and physically, even a small increase in the suicide rate is concerning which is why we are sharing important resources with the public throughout the year and especially during National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month.

Snapchat cut the payout amounts for creators’ viral videos in the Spotlight section because the program was producing too much “copycat content,” according to Snap CEO Evan Spiegel. Originally, Snapchat said it paid out more than $1 million per day to the top Spotlight contributors, allocated based on engagement with their content. Starting in June, the company reduced the amount it pays overall — to what the company characterized as millions of dollars per month — evidently leading some users to abandon Spotlight. According to Spiegel, speaking Wednesday at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia investor conference, one of the issues for Spotlight had been the homogeneity of the section’s videos: Users would see the winning content, he said, and “just make the same thing.” After changing the terms for the program to try to attract a greater diversity of content, Snap has seen record-high submissions to Spotlight, Spiegel claimed. The company is now focused on developing technology for “content understanding,” to determine at scale what makes a video compelling and to be able to recommend that to Snapchat users, Spiegel said. Spiegel said Spotlight, the TikTok-style user-contributed video section the app launched nearly a year ago, represents “the first time any…

Home News (Image credit: Discord) Discord has officially begun testing YouTube integration with the new 'Watch Together' feature, which lets members watch videos together in voice channels.The feature is still in its early, experimental stages, and currently is only available in a very limited number of Discord servers, but The Verge reports that testing will broaden over the coming weeks, with a full launch for all users in the works for October.Google, YouTube's parent company, recently undertook legal action to shut down a pair of high-profile third-party music bots, Rythm and Groovy, which together were installed on 36 million Discord servers. At the time, Rythm's creator said they expected the crackdown to eventually shutter every music bot available on the platform. According to The Verge, a similar feature was briefly tested late last year, and Discord is now repurposing it as the Watch Together feature specifically because Google is so aggressively shutting down music bots.If you want to check out Discord's YouTube integration test, you can do so by heading to the official Game Labs server, where you can join a voice channel, click the activity launcher, and pick 'Watch Together' to form a party. From there you can create…
