Empowering students to stand up, step in, and speak out.

Why it matters
The problem isn’t just bullying — it’s silence.
Every day, teens navigate the tension between fitting in and doing the right thing.
When they see someone being wronged, the fear of standing out can feel paralyzing.
Stand for Courage helps them find their voice — transforming bystanders into upstanders who de-escalate harm and build respect.
