Is your school ready for the 2016-2017 school year? ADL is ready for your school to join its No Place for Hate® Initiative.  It is time for schools to register and make the year-long commitment to rally students and staff around creating a positive, inclusive school culture. No Place for Hate is used as an umbrella for existing and new activities that contribute to bully prevention and social, emotional learning under one unifying message. It is also used as a foundation to build respect for individual and group differences while challenging prejudice and bigotry.

 

Schools throughout Colorado, reaching approximately 50,000 students, participated in last year’s initiative; 45 of those schools earned No Place for Hate designations.  ADL is proud to share stories from three schools that exemplify how they used the No Place for Hate framework during the 2015-2016 school year.
