Ten-year-old Hanna Leads Two Bullying Prevention Resolutions

Posted: 6/19/2013

After dealing with bullying in and out of school, ten-year-old Hanna started A Community For Change on Facebook. She wants to make a positive difference in her community and in the lives of her peers.

On May 14, 2013, the Prospect Park Borough Council passed two bully-free resolutions which Hanna presented, making her hometown the state's first “bully-free community” and a “compassionate borough.” These same resolutions are being introduced in Tyrone Borough, PA. Hanna’s goal is to have every town in Pennsylvania to become bully-free and for every school district to reevaluate their procedures and implement bullying awareness programs. Hanna will be working with her school board in order to implement new district-wide policies and programs for the upcoming school year.

“Be the change you wish to see in the world” are words she wants everyone to live by.
