Philosophy

We believe that to prevent bullying in children's lives, children and adults must:

• Take a new look at the ways they think about bullying

• Understand how their actions—or inaction—can either prevent or escalate bullying behaviors
• Take responsibility and action for preventing bullying
• Learn and teach others successful strategies and skills to prevent bullying
• Create an environment where rules of conduct are clear, children feel safe, and everyone understands that bullying will not be tolerated
