Kim Kardashian Actually Does Something Admirable

It pains us to write this, but: good on you, Kim Kardashian!

The reality star has finally found something to do with her fame that doesn't include reading scripted lines on E! or waist training om Instagram.

Kim is an executive producer of #RedFlag, a documentary on HLN that focuses on how social media can be employed as a tool to help identify and assist people with mental illnesses.

"I am blessed to be surrounded by family and friends that are loving and nurturing,” Kim said in a statement.

"But not everyone has that kind of support. 25 percent of adults in America will suffer from a mental illness in their lifetime, and many of them turn to social media to vent their depression, loneliness, and isolation."

The documentary, which is also produced by Dr. Drew Pinsky, shines a spotlight on the tales of two young folks suffering from mental illness, both of whom used social media to express their pain.

 It will premiere on May 5 at 9/8c:
 

This is the second time in a matter of days that Kardashian has received positive press.

She also covers a Power of Women Variety issue that gives her props for the time she spends with cancer patients in the hospital.
