What happened

Research has established bullying as a serious public health, educational, and mental health issue. Both the World Health Organization and the Public Health Agency of Canada now recognize bullying as a significant and preventable public health concern. Studies indicate that victims of childhood bullying, including those who bullied others, face increased risks of poor health, wealth, and social-relationship outcomes in adulthood.
