When adults respond quickly and consistently to bullying behavior, they send the message that it is not acceptable. Research shows this can stop bullying behavior over time. Parents, school staff, and other adults in the community can help kids prevent bullying by talking about it, building a safe school environment, and creating a community-wide bullying prevention strategy.

October 8 is Health Cares About Domestic Violence Day. Domestic violence is a public health issue, and health and medical providers can both educate all their patients about the health impact of experiencing partner violence and share information about resources for survivors so that everyone has access to support regardless of whether or not they disclose to a provider.

Health care providers, to prepare your practice to support the survivors you care for, visit http://ipvhealth.org for evidence-based interventions and resources from Futures Without Violence.
