The Bullying Blog

From Equality NC,

Yesterday was the Press Conference to introduce the School Violence Prevention Act (House Bill 548, Senate Bill 526). Our page has been updated with some videos of speakers at the event - you should check them out! In case you haven\'t yet heard, this bill gives enumerated categories that clearly define what bullying is and who can be targeted, and this includes sexual orientation and gender identity.

A coalition of groups from across NC have come together to form Prevent School Violence North Carolina, and we have launched a new blog just for stories from bullying victims themselves: http://preventschoolviolencenc.blogspot.com/

This blog will be updated daily with a new story or video from someone who has experienced or witness bullying. Share this blog and the stories with your friends, neighbors, family, and co-workers. Personal stories like these are important and effective in communicating the realities of bullying and in gaining support for the School Violence Prevention Act.

We so appreciate your continued support of Equality NC!
