Supporting the VSCO Community
We do our best to support and protect our VSCO community by preventing content that features, glorifies, or encourages self-harm. If you come across content that you believe may be triggering to an individual in the VSCO community, please report it to us so that our Trust & Safety Team can review and take proper action.
If you are concerned about someone, contacting them personally and encouraging them to get specialized support may be helpful. To report concerning content of this nature, tap on the Options icon
