This is an interesting campaign that will run Jan 22 - 26 this year. Focus is to end name-calling and bullying in schools. Hey, I'm all over that concept but first I want us so called adults to deal with ourselves. I often hear adults at grocery stores talk to their children as if they were less than dogs. I hear adults treat each other like shit. I don't know how much can be achieved in schools until we as a culture get our act together, including our home lives.

Safe Schools Coalition is a Washington State organization whose mission is to:
An international public-private partnership in support of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender youth is to help schools - at home and all over the world - become safe places where every family can belong, where every educator can teach, and where every child can learn, regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation.
Also helpful is the Washington State PTA Anti-Bullying Resources.
