Help PACER Create Its New Bullying Prevention Web Site for Teens

PACER is creating an exciting new bullying prevention Web site for teens—and you can help. Designed to reach, teach, and empower teens, the site will feature compelling stories from students, parents, educators, and community partners across the nation when it launches this summer. Learn more >>>

Here are two ways you can make a difference and maybe even change how people across the country think about bullying.

It can be about what happened to you or someone else, how you feel about bullying, how you think it affects students and schools, what you have done to prevent bullying, or what can be done to prevent bullying. We want to hear from everyone—teens, parents, teachers, and others with great ideas who want to improve the world.
