According to bestselling author Nancy Rue, one out of every four students is bullied, and 85 percent of those situations never receive intervention.
Her new book “So Not Okay” addresses bullying from the perspective of the bystander. It teaches invaluable lessons about self-worth and true friendship. Rue is now asking you, your parents and your teachers to take a stand against bullying and join the #SoNotOkay movement.
‟This movement is about solving the problem of bullying from the inside out,” Nancy says, ‟and that’s going to take all of us coming together!”
Here’s how you can make a difference:
• Use the #SoNotOkay hashtag to promote your stand against mean girls
• Change your profile pictures to one of the images we have created on social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.)
• Post one of the So Not Okay memes on Instagram or take a selfie of holding your pledge card.
• Sign one of the So Not Okay commitment cards with your friends.
• Print and sign the Code for Respecting the Dignity of Every Human Being, just like the girls in the book.
• Print and carry tribelet cards.
• Download the So Not Okay phone screen wallpapers.
• Get your own So Not Okay stickers for those who join the movement (while supplies last).
