Youth Bullying Prevention Resource from HRSA

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) released an evidence-informed and evidence-based Bullying Prevention Capacity Assessment and Change Package. According to the report, "approximately 21 percent of youth ages 12 through 18 reported being bullied at school in the United States during the 2014–15 school year, which translates to millions of youth being affected each year. Research shows that the results of bullying have serious, lasting effects, and prevention can improve the physical and mental health, safety, and well-being of children and their families."
