Advocate for Policy: Education
Bullying is becoming a significant issue that should be addressed especially in schools.
To implement an anti-bullying policy in her schools, there are several aspects that Amy needs to
consider. The purpose of the anti-bullying policy is to create a respectful and safe environment in
school and address all types of bullying (Gower, Cousin & Borowsky, 2017). The policy should

students, Amy should ensure that the policy includes the provision of counseling, mediation, and
peer support for victims of bullying and bullies in school. With all these aspects in place, the
school administration can implement the policy and communicate to every school member.

commercials, posters, pamphlets, and radio ads to create awareness concerning bullying. The
social worker should advocate Amy’s policy to the state government as a way of seeking support
