    About
  1. The saying is common, but no less true: What gets measured gets done.

    Before beginning a new bullying prevention effort at your school, remember to conduct a landscape assessment. By administering a short survey about the impact bullying is having on students and staff, you can develop targeted, measurable strategies that address the issues at your school.
  2. Tell us what you think of the Ad Council’s new Be More Than a Bystander Campaign. Weigh in with your thoughts and comments below.
