As a resource for parents, the Bullying Prevention Toolkit for Parents provides information on how to address bullying if your child is being bullied, is bullying others, or has witnessed bullying. It is also designed to give you the resources you will need to advocate for a bullying prevention program in your child's school.

All of these resources can be downloaded and/or reproduced for individual use. Before you beging, read this "Read Me First" document first using Adobe Reader.
