Date Published
September 2024
Abstract

As a key component of OJJDP’s Preventing Youth Hate Crimes and Identity-Based Bullying initiative, this curriculum is designed to build protective factors in youth, change the attitude and behavior of young people who commit hate crime offenses, and help individuals working with these youth to better understand the potential of advanced communications technologies to break down cultural barriers and address bias. This curriculum is intended for youth-serving organizations, middle and high schools, and other interested community groups to help raise awareness and prevent youth from engaging in identity-based bullying and hate crimes.
