Members of AFP Central Ontario’s Board of Directors proudly show off their pink shirt pride in support of #PinkShirtDay. One in five children are affected by bullying. This needs to stop. Together, we can break the cycle of bullying and encourage more kindness in the world.

[Barrie Public Library @BPL_inthecity]

Bullying is an issue in our schools, workplaces, homes, and online. Pink Shirt Day aims to raise awareness of this issue and support programs that foster children’s healthy self-esteem.
