Riot Games has teamed up with mental health charity Take This in order to support the mental health of its community and its content creators. The partnership will initially involve a series of modules designed to address issues around streaming and content creation.
In an announcement on its official website, Riot declared its commitment to the mental health of its communities. The developer says it wants to help “alleviate the mental health crisis”, and that it shares a “common vision” of creating a safe and inclusive environment in the gaming space.
The first thing Riot and Take This will do is create what they’re calling a “mental health curriculum”, which is essentially a series of informative articles regarding certain issues faced by content creators and streamers. These issues include creator burnout, intersectionality, self-care, and advocating for mental health, among other things.
