Help Stop Bullying with These Resources from The Bully Project
Parents, teachers, and students all have experienced bullying either first or second-hand. As it has thankfully and rightfully become more a part of our national conversation, we’re all looking for guidance to better understand how to deal with the issue and help us create a school environment where all students feel safe to learn. We hope this page will provide a good start for you. Many of these links are courtesy of The Bully Project, the social action campaign inspired by the film Bully. The producers did a fantastic job creating numerous resources and tools for both adults and kids to learn more about preventing bullying. We’ve added just a few more recommended sites and tools to round things out.
