Unity Day - October 16
Help build commUNITY
Kindness - Acceptance - Inclusion
Unity Day, started by PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center as a signature event of National Bullying Prevention Month, continues to grow every year as a representation of the desire to prevent bullying and unite for kindness, acceptance, and inclusion.
Celebrated on the third Wednesday of October, the goal of Unity Day is to wear and share orange to represent our promise as youth, parents, educators, businesses, and community members to help build a safe and supportive environment for everyone.
