Monroe County Safe Community Coalition
Announces Anti-Bullying Poster Contest for Youth
Monroe County, WI – In recognition of October as National Bullying Prevention Month, the Monroe County Safe Community Coalition (MCSCC) is proud to sponsor an Anti-Bullying Poster Contest
for Monroe County youth in grades K-12.
The contest aims to rally the community against bullying and promote kindness, with the theme: “Words Have Power. Choose Kindness.” Participants are encouraged to create original artwork (no AI) illustrating the power of kindness and how words can help make the world a better place. The contest is open from October 1 to October 31, 2026. Three winners will be selected on November 10, 2026, from three separate age categories: K-5, 6-8, and 9-12. Each winner will be awarded a pizza party for their class or homeschool friends.
How to Participate:
Poster entry forms will be available at the following locations:
“We believe that every child can play a part in creating a kinder, more welcoming environment” said the MCSCC members. “We look forward to seeing the creative ways our youth express the power of kindness.” The coalition’s focus on bullying prevention also includes distribution of bookmarks with antibullying messages in community and school libraries throughout the county.
MCSCC has developed a three-phase educational campaign to address issues brought forth by community members in the Community Safety Survey conducted in the spring of this year. The survey results and priority educational focus areas can be found at www.mcsafecommunities.org
