WELCOME TO ACTIVATE
hey, i'm ariella! my pronouns are she/her and i'm autistic! i'm also very passionate about making a positive change in the world in the way we (teenagers) are looking at our own mental health and being educated about the world around us, and making social and political changes to make the world a better place. i created activate as a way to easily access things like petitions, and news sources you can trust, and easy ways to educate yourself on super important matters, because i, like so many others believe that change needs to be made!
from, ariella :)

Jewish history and antisemitism
.............
Growing up as part of a minority that has experienced genocide on more than one occasion, you grow up knowing about the horros of it, but you find other people your age are completely uneducated about it due to the lack of it being taught in school. Find out about Jewish history by clicking here.
Israel and Palestine
.............
What is going on in the Middle East with Israel and Palestine is a complicated topic, and in recent weeks has been extremely talked about on social media, and a lot of antisemitism, misinformation and islamophobia, plus so much more has come with this. How does this affect mental health? Click the button below to learn.

ABOUTÂ ACTIVATE!
More about us, where you can see new content, how to get in touch, and so much more!
WHEN WILL NEW CONTENT BE ADDED?
Twice a month, the 1st and 14th days of it, articles will be uploaded here. They will range from information on activism, self care, and so much more that I am READY to write about. Stay tuned monthly, and follow at @activatewebsite on Instagram for announcements, behind the scences and more info about website updates.
WHERE DID THE IDEA COME FROM?
Just like lots of us...I have the most messy sleep schedule. To be honest I basically have no sleep schedule at all, so naturally I thought of Activate late at night. I know that if this had existed for me earlier I would've really liked it, so I wanted to create something for everyone else to enjoy!
HOW CAN I MAKE SUGGESTIONS?
There is a wide range of topics to discuss here, and I want to know what you want to know! The email for Activate is activatewebsite1@gmail.com and if there is anything you want to see here, just put it in an email! I am always open to new suggestions.
