Anti-Bullying Resources

By Amber O’Casey
Bullying is a pervasive and ongoing problem that often confronts teachers. Here are some helpful links to anti-bullying resources. 
  • http://www.schoolclimate.org/bullybust/ - The NSCC website contains many resources (organizations, sample forms, sample projects, links to other resources)—as well as opportunities for to start your own Upstander Alliance. 
  • http://www.stopbullying.gov/ - This site includes two rich sets of resources: The Youth Leaders’ Toolkit and the Youth Have the Power! (YHTP!) website. Here you can find tools to organize alliances at your school and in your com­munity. 
  • http://www.pbs.org/inthemix/shows/show_bullying.html - This website includes a 30 minute documentary for teens about bullying. In The Mix is an award-winning PBS teen series. 
  • www.pacer.org/bullying - This site is the home of the National Bully Preven­tion Awareness Month activities and provides key resources, including links to two age-appropriate student-focused web sites (www.teensagainstbully­ing.org and www.kidsagainstbullying.org). 
  • http://www.thebullyproject.com/ - The BULLY Project is the social action campaign inspired by the award-winning film BULLY. It has sparked a national movement to stop bullying that is transforming kids’ lives and changing a culture of bullying into one of empathy and action. On the site you can join the campaign, purchase the book and/or the DVD with the toolkit, learn how to start your own local chapter, and find many other tools and resources.
