Bully(en)

This year, over 5 million American kids will be bullied at school, online, on the bus, at home, through their cell phones and on the streets of their towns, making it the most common form of violence young people in this country experience.

The world we inhabit as adults begins on the playground. The Bully Project opens on the first day of school.
