National Spread the Word to End the Word DAY

Spread the Word to End the Word is a school campaign to ask students and schools to take the pledge to think about their language, embrace the differences in all people and respect everyone.

Special Olympics Project UNIFY is a new effort to engage whole school communities in promoting the values of dignity and acceptance through service learning. Through a series of Project UNIFY activities, the projects aims to support educational leaders in their efforts to reduce bullying, fear, and misunderstanding while promoting respect, high expectations, and the joy of sport for all students and their families. A first step in this effort involves a simple yet powerful call to action: together with a coalition of disability organizations around the country, we're asking that young people lead an effort to insure that all children with intellectual disabilities feel welcomed and accepted in school.
