Montgomery Public Schools is one of three Alabama school systems filing a lawsuit against some of the world’s largest social media companies.
The lawsuits are against Meta , TikTok, YouTube and Snapchat over the youth mental health crisis the plaintiffs say are caused by the social media companies. The lawsuits are filed in the California state court Judicial Council Coordination Proceeding . Beasley Allen attorney Davis Vaughn said, “We must guide our youth through this mental health crisis. To do so, our schools need additional funding, personnel, training and more. Beasley Allen attorneys, along with our co-counsel at Wagstaff Cartmell and Goza & Honnold, seek to help these school districts get the resources they need from the companies that preyed upon our youth.”
