19th Annual - TSDI Bullying Prevention/Awareness Program

October is National Bullying Prevention Awareness Month. This month the world comes together to raise awareness for bullying prevention. It is an annual effort by agencies, schools, and communities to highlight prevention, education, and awareness. Important resources to deepen the understanding/effects of bullying and to see how research has shown to be effective in the prevention, see www.stopbullying.gov What can you do? Spread the word! Awareness is key to any prevention. Be someone's hero in honor of National Bullying Prevention Month and encourages others, as well, to stand up to bullying by reporting every encounter. The 19th annual "Step Up and Make a Difference" Program at The Self-Defense Institute, www.tsdiOnLine.com is sponsored by TSDI Enrichment Programs, Inc. Let us remember this simple concept: "When everyone responds quickly and consistently, bullying behavior can be stopped."
