Child Mind Institute is an independent, national nonprofit dedicated to transforming the lives of children and families struggling with mental health and learning disorders. The organization’s website, childmind.org, provides content and resources to help those in need.
Mobile traffic has become an increased priority for the Child Mind Institute and they’ve recently implemented Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) to provide a better user experience for mobile visitors. Since implementing AMP in November 2017, they now see an average page speed of 3.1 seconds compared to their previous page speed of 7 seconds.

We are excited to announce the release of our new Tool Configurator redesign! Here at AddThis, we are constantly working hard to make our tools as easy to use as possible.
