OUR MISSIONTo reduce violence, emotional trauma and youth suicide by improving school faculty skill sets through innovative anti-bullying training programs.WHAT WE DOIn an effort to reduce violence, emotional trauma and youth suicide, The Anti-Bullying Initiative (ABI) works with a team of psychologists and psychotherapists to develop onsite training programs that are taught to faculty and staff in schools across America. These innovative programs are designed to educate educators on how to identify signs of emotional distress, potential bullying situations, and how to appropriately respond.HOW WE DO ITBy working with teams of professional psychologists and psychotherapists, ABI is able to develop proprietary training programs focused on our educators. These innovative programs are taught to our network of professional trainers who in turn visit schools and conduct group training sessions among teachers and staff. Currently, these programs are funded by corporations and individual donors like you, so even schools in poverty-stricken areas can take advantage of ABI's services.
