This comprehensive online module provides resources and engaging activities designed to help students develop the skills to advocate for their peers, whether you are just beginning the bullying prevention conversation in your school or taking further steps to spread kindness.

I Care Because
I care because I was bullied for four years and it made me miserable. The bullying started when I was ten and it has not stopped. It has mostly been from the same girl and her friends. I don't want anyone to have to go through what I went through, and I what to bring an end to bullying. Nobody deserves to be scared, angry, sad or ashamed every day. To anyone out there who is being or has been bullied - even if you feel alone, please never give up hope that things can get better. You deserve to be happy no matter what the bully/bullies say.

I don't others to go that path, i don't want no one to kill them self nor self harm them self, its heartful to see other in pain. Please stop the bully, don't make other suffer nor end there life ;'(

I have seen many people be bullied. I have never been bullied, but I try to stand up for the kids who are. I've fought kids just to get them to stop bullying other kids. I feel bad for the kids that get bullied. I guess I'm kinda in a group of friends, but I still hang out and be friends with everyone. If you run in to me you'll probably see me in a kinda country/rebel crowd, but I'm friends with anyone who would be friends with me.

I have always felt the need to be different and students at my school don't like that. Everyone blends in and molds together, but the people who ruin that are bullied. I was one of the people who ruined it. I would get so upset that I would cut myself and find any excuse to harm myself. I still don't blend in perfectly, but I've learned to embrace it because that's what life is all about. It's about being different. My heart and all my love goes out to Phoebe and her family and any other person who is bullied
