'Take a Stand. Lend a Hand. Stop Bullying Now!' Public Service Announcements from the Health Resources and Services Administration
-- How Will You Use This Story? --
The new campaign "Take a Stand. Lend a Hand. Stop Bullying Now!" is designed to stop bullying--including verbal or physical harassment that occurs repeatedly over time, that is intended to cause harm, and that involves an imbalance of power between the child who bullies and the child who is bullied. Among boys, bullying typically involves pushing, shoving, and other forms of physical intimidation. Girls tend to bully through gossiping, social exclusion, and verbal teasing--but boys frequently engage in these forms of bullying as well.
The campaign was developed by HHS' Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), in partnership with more than 70 health, safety, education and faith-based organizations. In addition, a "Youth Expert Panel" comprised of 18 nine- through 13-year-olds provided creative direction during the development of the campaign.
