In a study conducted by StopBullying.gov, "about 49% of children in grades 4–12 reported being bullied by other students at school at least once during the past month.

President and Founder of MVP Kids, Mel Saunders, adds, "The S.T.A.N.D. series is action-oriented; stand, tell, act, notice, and display- and this emphasizes the importance of taking initiative in these situations. We want parents, caregivers, and educators to feel equipped with tools, in this case, a pledge of actions to feel comfortably equipped if their young children experience bullying." Titles in the S.T.A.N.D. series include; Stand Up To Bullies, Stand Down Bullies, and Stand Together Against Bullies.
