Let me give you a quick synopsis of the movie:
Sophomore year has been a nightmare for Jessica Burns. Relentlessly harassed by her former friend Avery Keller, Jessica doesn't know what she did to deserve the abuse from one of South Brookdale High's most popular and beautiful students. But when a shocking event changes both of their lives, a documentary film crew, a hidden digital camera, and the attention of a reeling community begin to reveal the powerful truth about A Girl Like Her.
There is an organization that Stephen Amell donated to and it is one that is near and dear to my heart. I donate when I can and buy merchandise from them often. They are called Stand for the Silent. This was formed by 2 parents that lost their so in 2010 to suicide because he was being bullied and wanted to escape it. His name is Ty Smalley. His parents travel across the US to educate schools about the seriousness of bullying. These children need to know that they are somebody! Ty Smalley was only 11 years old when he took his life. Did you know that every 7 seconds, a child is bullied? EVERY 7 SECONDS! They have reached 1,021,000 Kids in 1,004 Schools! Aside from this you can download a PDF from A Girl like her to promote peace. It's called "The PEACEkeeper Kit". It is an educational tool for students, teachers and administrators to transform their schools and communities into PEACE ZONES through an enforceable commitment to redefine social behaviors and conflict resolution methods. Students will lead this revolutionary transformation through simple, step-by-step instructional and supportive materials, including a PEACE PLEDGE and PEACE CONTRACT, which emphasizes healing over punishment
