Founded in 2006 by two courageous teenagers, BullyingCanada is a non-profit organization that has grown into a beacon of hope for bullied children and teenagers across the country. The grassroots organization provides vital support to those affected by bullying, ensuring that no young person has to face their struggles alone.

BullyingCanada’s mission is simple: to eradicate bullying through education, advocacy, and direct support. They offer a lifeline to youth in distress, empowering them with the resources and assistance they need to overcome the challenges they face.

The organization operates a 24/7 support network, offering phone, chat, and email services to bullied youth. Trained volunteers provide immediate assistance, offering a listening ear, practical advice, and emotional support. The organization also conducts workshops and presentations in schools and communities nationwide. These programs aim to educate students, teachers, and parents about the impacts of bullying and effective strategies to prevent and address it.

In addition to direct support and education, BullyingCanada works tirelessly to advocate for stronger anti-bullying policies at school, community, and government levels. Their efforts have led to significant policy changes, ensuring that schools and communities take bullying seriously and act to protect vulnerable youth. Through various empowerment initiatives, BullyingCanada helps youth build resilience, develop coping strategies, and regain confidence. These programs are designed to provide long-term support by enabling young people to thrive despite the challenges that they face.

Supporting BullyingCanada means standing up against bullying and making a tangible difference in the lives of affected youth. There are a multitude of ways to get involved, including volunteering, donating to critical support service programs, and just raising awareness about the issue of bullying and the resources available through BullyingCanada.

BullyingCanada contributes to a safer, more inclusive environment for all young people in Canada, and Polite Canada is honoured to highlight their essential work in creating safer spaces for youth across our nation.
