#StopBullying
Bullying negatively impacts all youth involved—those who are bullied, those who bully others, and those who witness the bullying (bystanders).
Bullying is a type of youth violence defined as any unwanted aggressive behavior by another youth or group of youths who are not siblings or current dating partners; bullying involves an observed or perceived power imbalance and is often repeated multiple times or is highly likely to be repeated. Victims may experience harm or distress from physical (hitting, tripping), verbal (name calling, teasing), or relational/social (spreading rumors, leaving out of group) bullying. Bullying can happen in person and electronically (known as “cyberbullying”), at school or in other settings.
