Why Bullying Must Be Addressed
The numbers are alarming:
- 160,000 students stay home every day out of fear of being bullied.
- 60% of middle school students report being bullied, yet only 16% of teachers believe it's happening.
- Bullying was a factor in two-thirds of the 37 school shootings reviewed by the U.S. Secret Service.
- 1 in 4 teens is bullied, and 1 in 5 children admits to engaging in bullying behavior.
These statistics highlight the urgency for action. Bullying is not just a problem for individual children; it's a community-wide issue that requires a community-wide response.

A Community United Against Bullying
Remember the impactful campaigns we grew up with?
- D.A.R.E. America's “Say No to Drugs” slogan is still ingrained in our minds decades later.
- McGruff the Crime Dog inspired us with safety messages that made a lasting impression.
These initiatives prove that when communities unite around a clear, powerful message, it can resonate for years. Today, we face a similar challenge: uniting to combat the growing epidemic of bullying.
One inspiring example is the story of Karen Klein, the bus monitor who was bullied. Her community rallied to support her, raising enough funds to allow her to retire and take a much-needed vacation. This is proof that, together, we can make a difference—but we must do more.

By working together to educate children about the types of bullying and empowering them to overcome these situations, we can create safer, more inclusive environments.
