Break the Silence: How Making the First Move Day Supports Bullying Victims and Promotes Healing April 7th

Published

on

Bullying can take place in various settings, including schools, workplaces, and other community spaces. The earliest efforts to raise awareness about bullying and establish anti-bullying movements in the U.S. can be traced back to the early to mid-1990s. During this period, several states began to consider passing anti-bullying laws as the issue grew more significant and widespread.

In 1999, Georgia became the first state to implement anti-bullying legislation. Since then, every U.S. state, along with numerous other countries, has adopted similar laws. Additionally, many anti-bullying initiatives have been launched, aiming to eliminate bullying and provide support for recovery. These programs are designed to address the lasting impact of bullying.

In 2018, Greshun de Bouse, an entrepreneur and anti-bullying advocate, established First Move Life Coaching, a company focused on bullying prevention and recovery coaching. That same year, the company launched the first Making the First Move Day observance. One of the main objectives of the day is to encourage victims to speak about their experiences because individuals are reluctant to speak up or seek help which is playing an important role in advancing anti-bullying efforts and initiatives.
