THE STORY:
"Founded in 2006, PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center actively leads social change, so that bullying is no longer considered an accepted childhood rite of passage. PACER provides innovative resources for students, parents, educators, and others, and recognizes bullying as a serious community issue that impacts education, physical and emotional health, and the safety and well-being of students."
Raising awareness and aid to benefit the National Bullying Prevention Center. Bullying continues to be a serious issue among children and teens. In recent years, bullying has spread from the realm of playgrounds and classrooms to Facebook and chatrooms. In our youth, many of us turned to video games coping mechanism to escape from those feelings upon coming home. However, we recognize that the solution isn't hiding from the issue in a land of fantasy, but addressing the problem head-on.
