October Is National Bullying Prevention Month
National Bullying Prevention Month is an opportunity to empower schools, families, and students to recognize the signs of bullying and intervene effectively, helping to create safer and more supportive learning environments for everyone.
- 1 out of every 5 students report being bullied, and over 20% of bullied students experience
lower self-esteem, strained relationships, and reduced engagement at school
- Over 50% of bullied students don’t report incidents to school adults
- Only 1 in 5 kids have access to mental health care due to barriers like long waiting lists, high costs,
and lack of insurance coverage

Bullying and mental health are deeply connected. If your child is experiencing bullying and it is affecting their emotional well-being or mental health, it’s important to seek professional support. Therapy can help children process their emotions, build resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies. Through
our partnership with Hazel Health, we offer free, confidential online therapy for all students. If your child is struggling, we encourage you to reach out to our school counselors or get matched with a licensed therapist at https://getstarted.hazel.co/
