Appearance Bullying is when someone picks on others for how they look, like their race, gender, disability or body size.
As kids get older, the pressure to look perfect grows, making bullying worse.

Together, we can build a culture where everyone feels accepted for who they are

Teaching our kids to say 'NO!' is crucial for their safety.

Empower them by showing that nobody should touch them without permission. Encourage assertiveness by practicing saying 'no!' or running away from uncomfortable situations.
