Pineapple Support, Webcam Lab Expand Reach in South America

LOS ANGELES — An alliance between Pineapple Support and cam studio The Webcam Lab has connected over 200 performers in Colombia and other South American countries with free and low-cost mental health services. The two groups made the announcement today in a joint statement.

"The main goal is to promote positivity by talking about the problems that people can have in this type of industry," said Laura Patricia Herrera, a psychologist, therapist and spokesperson for Pineapple Support. "Although the office is in the city of Cali, we are aware of the need for support in other cities, such as Medellin and Bogotá where we are already working with performers. Currently, due to the worldwide pandemic, psychological support is being provided virtually via Skype and WhatsApp, and in this way we are able to mitigate the anxiety caused by COVID-19."

Pineapple Support began its alliance with Webcam Lab in August 2019 with the Colombian healthcare nonprofit Liam Foundation and video chat company AJ Estudios.

Regular meetings are held at the Webcam Lab headquarters in Cali, where education and treatment for mental health issues such as anxiety and depression are provided free to models from different locations.

"I am incredibly thankful to the Webcam Lab and AJ Studios for their generosity and for helping to make Pineapple’s support in South America possible,” said Leya Tanit, founder of Pineapple Support. “Laura’s tireless work as a therapist has helped over 200 performers so far, and with new and exciting initiatives from the team there, we’re increasing our reach even more."
