Is It Any Good?
Aside from the PSA videos, there's not much original content on SERVE.MTV. However, the project links to several good organizations and directs visitors to All for Good, an excellent Web application that enables users to search for volunteer opportunities based on their location and interests. Teens looking for more robust coverage of politics and activism can check out Think.MTV.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
