LOS ANGELES — Pineapple Support has named Austin Ponce as its newest brand ambassador.
“Austin’s journey — from physician to performer to advocate — is a testament to resilience and compassion,” said Pineapple Support founder Leya Tanit. “His voice carries powerful messages of self-acceptance, lived experience, and the importance of community representation. We’re honored to have him on board as Pineapple Support’s latest brand ambassador.
Added Ponce, “I’ve been an advocate for mental health since my teenage years, not only because I believe in its importance, but because I’ve lived it firsthand as a patient. Access to mental health services is still far too limited. Many people feel ashamed to ask for help, or simply don’t have access to it at all. That’s why organizations like Pineapple Support are so vital. Their commitment to affordability, inclusivity, and real support aligns deeply with my own values, and I’m proud to contribute to breaking down stigmas and making mental well-being a priority for everyone in our community.”
