"Where, after all, do universal human rights begin? In small places, close to home - so close and so small that they cannot be seen on any maps of the world. Yet they are the world of the individual person; the neighborhood he lives in; the school or college she attends; the factory, farm, or office where he works. Such are the places where every man, woman, and child seeks equal justice, equal opportunity, equal dignity without discrimination. Unless these rights have meaning there, they have little meaning anywhere. Without concerted citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the larger world." Eleanor Roosevelt
Bullying.org: The purpose of this website is to eliminate bullying in our society by supporting individuals and organizations to take positive actions against bullying through the sharing of resources, and to guide and champion them in creating non-violent solutions to the challenges and problems associated with bullying. Excellent!
The Maine Project Against Bullying: An excellent website with a number of links to sites that are committed to helping children, parents and teachers deal with bullies. Highly Recommended!
American Medical Association: The AMA's links to sites dealing with bullying.
Stop Bullying Now: "Recent incidents of school violence have focused new attention on childhood bullying and harassment. As we watch children being crushed by bullying, we often feel powerless. No more! There are ways to stop bullying and harassment, based on decades of research." Excellent!
Green Dove's Children's Peace Book List: A wonderful list of books for children with peace themes.
War Child: War Child is a network of independent organizations working across the world to help children affected by war.
World Centers of Compassion for Children International: Every sane-thinking person in the world knows that no innocent children should suffer. Yet, each day upwards of 40,000 children die from hunger, while thousands more die in war and from preventable diseases. The time has come to begin holding governments responsible for such suffering. Whether the death of one child is caused by war, hunger, disease or abuse, it is one child too many.
