INTERVENTION: A new anti-bullying campaign is aimed at parents as well as children.
By Hannah Lerstad, News Writer
The Be More Than a Bystander campaign targets parents and the influence they have to stop bullying. It calls for parents to talk to their children about how to prevent bullying and offers options on how their children should react to others being bullied.
Sponsored by Advertising Council, a nonprofit organization, Be More Than a Bystander is a nationwide campaign launched with the assistance of stopbullying.gov, the Bully Project and dosomething.org. The campaign uses public service announcements as well as online and print advertisements to provide information and support for students who want to help end bullying.
