Community-Level Strategies: Interrupting Bullying & Harassment in Schools -- Toolkit
Brion-Meisels, Gretchen; O'Neil, Eliza; Bishop, Sarah
Equity Assistance Center Region II, Intercultural Development Research Association
It is important to acknowledge the role of community participation in the efforts on the prevention of school-based bullying and harassment. There is an extensive body of research on the importance of school-family partnerships (e.g., Montemayor & Chavkin, 2016; Henderson, et al., 2007; Cohen & Freiberg, 2013; Bradshaw, 2015) and school-community partnerships (e.g., Mapp & Kuttner, 2013) in nurturing positive school climates and fostering academic outcomes for youth. Provided in this toolkit is a set of strategies from which educators might draw to support the work of building bridges with community-based actors to prevent bullying and harassment. The authors want to explicitly note that they consider families key community-based actors; not only are families incredibly knowledgeable about their own student's needs, but they are often the folks who physically bridge the contexts of school and community for youth. The strategies listed work best when integrated into an explicit, multi-tiered effort to improve school culture and climate, such that administrators, teachers, educational support providers, and families are integrated into these efforts.
