Animated series 'Super CJ' helps Black children understand and manage their mental health.

Super CJ: The Animated Series is a groundbreaking new children's show that is making a difference in the mental health of Black children. Created by Yaba Baker, the show stars Super CJ, a Black superhero, and his trusty sidekick, Rex the Superdog, as they explore their superpowers.

The series aims to help children learn to manage their emotions, particularly anger, and is based on Baker's own experiences. With the launch of the show, Baker has also begun the Super CJ Children's Mental Health 365 campaign to raise awareness of the critical mental health crisis that Black children face.

A 2019 report from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration found that suicide rates among African-American children were twice as high as those of White children, and that overall teen rates had increased by 78%. Baker is dedicated to helping address this issue and is taking various initiatives to provide support and education for children and families. These include monthly newsletters, online forums, social media campaigns, and collaborations with mental health professionals, educators, and child advocates.

The Super CJ animated series has already made an impact, with over 450,000 views on YouTube from viewers around the world. To join the movement and become a supporter of the Super CJ animated series and the campaign, you can complete a survey or purchase Super CJ merch online. A portion of all sales will be donated to non-profits that provide mental health resources to children.
