CIS on National Bullying Prevention Month

Communities In Schools' national president, Dan Cardinali, recently interviewed Julie Hertzog, founder of National Bullying Prevention Month. Here are some things we learned from that interview:

• National Bullying Prevention Month is held in October because organizers wanted it to occur early in the school year but after things settled down from the beginning of the new school year.

• From its beginnings in 2006, National Bullying Prevention Month has had national partners including the National PTA and the National Education Association.

• The number one question the group gets is “How can I help?” Hertzog said volunteers can do anything from signing a digital petition to joining one of the bullying prevention events around the country. To read the entire interview with Hertzog, click here.
