bullying in Southern Nevada.
Ryan Follese of Hot Chelle Rae

this holiday season and at such an exciting time in our lives. Our music is all
about having fun and feeling good about being yourself and being an individual,
so we are naturally excited about these opportunities to support kids who deal
with these issues everyday.”

commitment to combat bullying. All
middle and high schools in all of Clark County participated in this awareness campaign to

parents, students and educators on how to combat bullying in Nevada. In addition to a
variety of print and broadcast materials, the
campaign has designed curriculum for implementation by the Clark County School
