Stand For Courage

A note from our founder, Nicole Jon Sievers:

It happened: Amplify Courage.
And it was everything.

We soared together through the Moore Theatre, and I watched people step into the night leaning into one another, laughing. Community, hopeful and fully alive.

I am heart-full.
Every artist blessed us and left us wrapped in auditory-light. Every person in that room had the chance to step into something larger in themselves, in community, and to carry the practical courage of bullying prevention back into their lives.

Gratitude to everyone who held hands to build the scaffolding. Everyone who made the dream their own. Who called in friends and collaborators. Who offered names, numbers, time, ideas, practical support and extraordinary talent.

Everyone who packed bags, boarded planes, left pets and children and the comfort of home to show up. Everyone who took Ubers, searched for parking, bought tickets, posted, and filled that room with presence.

I am humbled.
Honored.
Delighted.
Recharged.

“These moments given are a gift from time.”
- Kate Bush

We all have been all of it. Bullying prevention is about the bystander stepping up even in small ways to distract and divert attention from the targeted youth. Get caught doing the right thing by one another and step up when someone is being picked on.

"It's all about the bystander!
Individual acts of courageous youth drive the impact of peer power that can eradicate bullying."
