One Kind Word…

is a theme that shows how even the smallest of actions can break the bullying cycle.

In a world that can sometimes feel like it’s filled with negativity, one kind word can provide a moment of hope. It can be a turning point. It can change their day. It can change the course of a conversation and break the cycle of bullying.

Best of all, one kind word leads to another. Kindness fuels kindness. So, from the playground to Congress and our phones to our homes, our actions can fire a chain reaction that powers positivity.

It starts with one kind word. It starts today.  Visit our resource guide for more resources on how to stop bullying.
