It is a time to promote awareness and understanding of bullying and its impacts.

Get involved

Regardless of where bullying happens – in school, the office, at home or in the community – there are people and resources that can help. Use the hashtags #WhereToTurn and #BullyingAwarenessWeek to share places to turn to for support.

Together, we can all strive to model healthy relationships and stand up to bullying in our homes, schools, workplaces and communities.

Here are a few ways you can take part in Bullying Awareness Week:

  • share bullying prevention resources on social media
    • the Bullying Helpline (310-1818) is available 24/7 in over 170 languages
  • start a discussion with your friends, family or coworkers about how to intervene
  • become a mentor – mentorships help build healthy relationships
