(People and groups who show they care)
I really want to create a section here that shows reason for hope and successful stories. If you know anyone who has created something (music, video, poetry, etc) to promote the anti-bully movement, I would love to add it. I also want to find more links and stories about the positive efforts of school groups or students, parents, victims, bullies who turned around, and celebrities. Stories of victims who are no longer victims would be wonderful, too. Just drop me an email! (Back to Main Anti-Bully Resource Page)
