October is Bully Prevention Month

On Bullying Prevention Month, CSBMG acknowledges that bullying doesn’t just hurt in the moment—it leaves lasting emotional scars that can impact both children and adults for years. For children, it can disrupt their sense of safety, self-worth, and ability to trust others. It can lead to anxiety, depression, and trouble forming healthy relationships later in life. For adults, bullying—whether in the workplace or other settings—can cause stress, low self-esteem, and severe mental health struggles, including depression and PTSD.
At any age, the effects of bullying are real and serious. It’s crucial for us to intervene, offer support, and build environments where respect and kindness prevail. Together, we can help protect mental health and foster well-being for all.
