Re: resources for bystander training about bullying?

I took the bystander training course from Right To Be (previously called 
I Holla Back) years ago

https://righttobe.org/training/bystander-intervention-training/

It was outstanding. It is only 1 hour and covers a huge amount of 
information. When I took the course it was free.

Sometimes a bystander might be uncomfortable and wonder if they can/should say something but how to do so is not always clear in the moments and practice can help.
