National Bullying Prevention Month in October reminds us of the harm bullying does. It’s always important to talk about the dangers of bullying and the trauma it can bring to its victims. However, this month, use your voice to speak up extra loud. Research shows that bullying often leaves lasting negative effects on those who deal with it. These effects include chronic depression, increased risk of suicidal thoughts, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, poor general health, self-harm, substance abuse, and difficulty establishing trusting, reciprocal friendships and relationships. By speaking out, spreading kindness, and finding your other roles in bullying prevention, you are making school settings, workplaces, and other environments safer and happier places. We must send a message that bullying will not be tolerated in our communities, and now is the perfect time to start.

National Crime Prevention Month is an annual designation observed in October. During this time, the National Crime Prevention Council asks you to join in the commitment to “Take a Bite Out Of Crime.” Law enforcement budgets are shrinking across the country, so there’s a major role each of us can play to help keep our homes, schools, and communities safe. National Crime Prevention Month is all-encompassing. From stopping identity theft, to firearm safety, to gang prevention… there’s a lot of ground to cover when it comes to preventing illegal activity.

National Domestic Violence Awareness Month is an annual designation observed in October. For many, home is a place of love, warmth, and comfort. It’s somewhere that you know you will be surrounded by care and support, and a nice little break from the busyness of the real world. But for millions of others, home is anything but a sanctuary. The U.S. Department of Justice estimates that 1.3 million women and 835,000 men are victims of physical violence by a partner every year.

October recognizes Down Syndrome Awareness Month. During the month, events take place not only raise to raise awareness but to shine a light on the abilities and dreams of those with Down Syndrome.
