According to the latest Professional Research Consultants, Inc. (PRC) Child and Adolescent Health Survey, nearly 25% of students in the Kansas City area reported being bullied in the past year, and almost 12% had been cyberbullied.
It’s easy to look the other way when kids are being bullied, but no more! Bullying is a problem we can’t ignore, and it’s hurting our kids. That’s why Children’s Mercy and Sporting KC are teaming up to put a stop to bullying with Red Card.
