Here at Not In Our Town, we have been grateful for the support of our partners at American Federation of Teachers [1]. AFT's efforts to promote the PBS broadcasts of Not In Our Town: Light in the Darkness [2] and Class Actions [3] and share campaign resources with its network have allowed us to connect with dynamic educators and public employees across the country.

We were also thrilled to show a segment of Not In Our Town: Light in the Darkness at AFT's annual Civil, Human and Women's Rights Conference last year in Detroit, and participate in a powerful Town Hall meeting. We are very pleased to share information about AFT's important campaign to respond to and prevent bullying: "See a Bully, Stop a Bully: Make a Difference."

The AFT campaign, See a Bully, Stop a Bully: Make a Difference [4] has an array of resources for teachers, students, and parents. The purpose of  the AFT campaign is to raise awareness of bullying as a community issue that extends beyond the school campus and is prevalent online. A series of webinars are posted on the AFT site that provide educators and NIOS constituents with a range of topics including: creating safe spaces for LGBTQ students, internet privacy, and creating safe school climates.
