awareness of bullying prevention.

the people of Guam to join the movement and help spread the local and
national messages of Promoting Kindness and Respect on Social Media

Inclusion. Also The Judiciary asks the public to participate in the
upcoming Unity Day by wearing orange on Wednesday Oct. 19th 2016. It
can be an orange t-shirt, hat, tie, or even orange shoelaces. The public
can also participate by changing their Facebook status to Unity Day Oct.
19th.
The Judiciary of Guam has been conducting outreach and training in
bullying prevention to public and private schools and throughout the
community of Guam. The Judiciary of Guam will continue to pledge its
support to the prevention of bullying in the workplace and in the
community.
