Social media commUNITY Day: Bullying Prevention Month

Next date: Wednesday, October 22, 2025 | 12:01 AM to 11:59 PM

The City of Menlo Park is participating in National Bullying Prevention Month. This month, we'll be sharing information about bullying and how community service programs can help victims of bullying minimize the social isolation and harm to self-esteem that bullying can cause.

On Wednesday, Oct. 22, join us on social media for CommUNITY Day. To participate, post up with the tag #MPCommUNITY2025 for a chance to be highlighted in our newsletter.

Here are a few ideas for posts you can tag us in to help with Bullying Prevention Month.

• Wear something orange in support of bullying prevention, and post a photo of your orange attire with our hashtag
• Pick up an orange Bullying Prevention wristband from Arrillaga Family Recreation Center, 700 Alma St, or Belle Haven Community Campus, 100 Terminal Ave, and tag us
• Share a story about how you spread kindness or built community so that everyone can feel included and tag us
• Share a story of someone who helped you overcome bullying and tag us (and tag them so they know how much they impacted you!)
• Tell us about how building community helped you overcome isolation from bullying.
• Write a thank-you note to someone whose kindness came at a time when you needed a friend.

Also, check out these kindness action cards and see how many acts of kindness you can spread this month. You can print it yourself, or stop by a Menlo Park library or recreation center to pick one up in person (grab a CommUNITY Day bracelet while you're here!)
