THE SAINTS' DREW BREES AGAINST BULLYING











Ellen's favorite quarterback speaks out against bullying.

Organizations which you may want to support:

1. The Trevor Project runs the Trevor Lifeline, a 24-hour, national crisis and suicide prevention lifeline for gay and questioning teens. The number is 1-866-4-U-TREVOR (1-866-488-7386).

You can learn more about The Trevor Project and the other great programs they have at their website.

2. Another great organization is The National Center for Bullying Prevention, helping to promote awareness and teach effective ways to respond to bullying. You can learn more about them at Pacer.

3. GLSEN (The Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network) is a great organization that works to ensure safe schools for ALL children. GLSEN envisions a world in which every child learns to accept and respect all people. In addition to resources for parents, teachers and students, GLSEN facilitates several programs including The National Day of Silence, and No Name Calling Week.
