Background: It has been reported that an estimated 160,000 kids miss school every day in fear of being verbally or physically bullied. Additionally, about 25 percent of children in our school systems admit to having been bullied at one time or another, while about 20 percent of children admit to participating in acts of bullying. The 麻豆果冻传媒 Anti-Defamation League (ADL) is an organization fighting against these alarming statistics in an effort to eliminate bullying and all forms of bigotry throughout Central Texas to secure fair treatment for all individuals.
One of the programs that the Anti-Defamation League created and supports is the 鈥淣o Place for Hate鈥 initiative, which provides educators and students with the resources to ensure that anti-bias and diversity education are an integral part of the school curriculum. 鈥淣o Place for Hate鈥 also helps to create and sustain inclusive school environments where all students feel valued and have the opportunity to succeed by promoting respect for individual difference while challenging bigotry and prejudice.
