Social Media Toolkit
Bullying Prevention
October is World Bullying Prevention Month. During the 2021-22 school year, nearly 20% of students across the U.S. ages 12-18 experienced bullying, and research indicates persistent bullying can lead to depression and anxiety, according to stopbullying.gov.
Caregivers can have important conversations with their children about preventing bullying. These conversations can start in early childhood. Use social media posts, resources and graphics in this toolkit to help caregivers empower their children to be anti-bullying champions.
The messages and links can be used as is, or they can be customized for your community by directing people to your prevention program's information. Resources, such as videos, facts about bullying, and laws and policies, are available at stopbullying.gov.
