Stop A Bully is a registered national non-profit organization which allows any student in Canada who is a victim or witness of severe bullying to be able to safely report the details to school officials without risk of becoming a target themselves.   The Stop A Bully program helps increase bullying awareness & accountability within schools to allow officials to be more proactive in preventing serious incidents of bullying.  Stop A Bully provides schools with critical information to be proactive in helping all students involved in school bullying - witness, target and perpetrator.







ORIGIN

Stop A Bully was developed by a B.C. teacher in 2009 over a 4-day period when a student was on suspension for an assault that had taken place.

FEEDBACK

"Stop A Bully has allowed us to be pro-active as opposed to reactive.  Typically, we are usually the last ones to find out about bullying...Students often times endure bullying because they hope it will go away and/or they fear the outcome may be retaliation if they speak up!  This reporting system allows the victim, the friends of the victim and/or the parents to report the situation to the school administration.  From the report, we are often able to gather initial information that assists us in following through with the matter...Thanks for your wonderful website that has enabled us to create awareness and an opportunity to address bullying.  All secondary schools should have an anonymous reporting program."

Rick Hansen Secondary School (Abbotsford, B.C.)
