🧡 OCTOBER IS NATIONAL BULLYING PREVENTION MONTH 🧡

Bullying is more than “kids being kids.” It can affect a young person’s sense of safety, belonging, confidence, school engagement, and overall well-being—and its impact can follow them long after the moment has passed.

📊 The numbers matter:
• 34% of U.S. teenagers ages 12–17 reported being bullied in the past year.
• Nearly 1 in 5 high school students reported being bullied on school property.
• More than 1 in 6 reported experiencing electronic bullying.
• Teens who experienced bullying were nearly twice as likely to report symptoms of anxiety or depression compared with teens who were not bullied.

🌱 AT RURAL RESILIENCE, WE BELIEVE CONNECTION IS PREVENTION.

In rural communities, relationships matter. We know one trusted adult, one supportive teacher, one caring peer, or one person willing to notice a change can make a tremendous difference.

Let's create schools and communities where every child knows:

💛 You belong here.
💛 You deserve to feel safe.
💛 You can ask for help.
💛 Someone will listen.
💛 You don't have to face it alone.

This October, let's move beyond “Don't bully.”

Let's teach children how to connect, how to include, how to speak up, how to ask for help, and how to care for one another.

Because prevention starts with all of us.

Rural Resilience brings community together for 988 Day!

September is National Su***de Prevention month.

09/09/2026

💚 988 Day: Moving Together. Connecting Together.

Today at 9:00 AM, schools across Park County came together for 8 minutes of movement and connection in recognition of 988 Day.

We moved to remind our students, staff, families, and community that it’s okay to ask for help. 💚

Mental health is part of our health—and just like we care for our physical health, we need to care for our mental and emotional well-being, too.

Movement can support mental health. Connection supports mental health. And connection is prevention.

Eight minutes may seem small, but when an entire community moves together, it sends a powerful message:

You are not alone. It’s okay to reach out. It’s okay to ask for help. And we are stronger when we take care of one another.

Thank you to the schools across Park County who participated and helped us create a community where connection, wellness, and mental health matter. 💚

Move. Connect. Reach out. Ask for help.
988 is here when you need it.
