No Place for Hate® empowers schools and communities to promote respect for individual and group differences, while challenging prejudice and bigotry. The initiative has been picked up by over 80 schools in the state of Michigan to date, with several schools and school districts pending.

No Place for Hate® is an initiative designed to encourage collaboration within schools and communities to develop and implement creative projects that enhance appreciation of diversity and foster harmony between diverse groups.

One person can make a difference when it comes to opposing hate!

What is the Goal of No Place for Hate®?

The goal of No Place for Hate® is to inspire a national movement led by students, educators, and family members who are committed to using the power of positive peer influence to build inclusive and safe schools in which all students can thrive.

How do Schools Become No Place for Hate®?

There are four steps to becoming a No Place for Hate® school:

1. Register

The registration deadline for the 2022-2023 academic year is Friday, December 30, 2022.

2. Create a No Place for Hate® Coalition

This student-led coalition is responsible for identifying bias and bullying issues in the school, developing measurable goals to address these issues, and coordinating and overseeing the implementation of anti-bias and diversity activities throughout the year designed to achieve those goals. This coalition should include students, staff, administrators, and family members that reflect the diversity of the school community.

3. Sign the No Place for Hate® Resolution of Respect

Have school community sign the Resolution of Respect (for Middle and High Schools) or the No Place for Hate® Promise (for Elementary Schools), affirming a commitment to promoting respect and challenging bullying.

4. Complete at least 3 Activities throughout the year

Each student must have an opportunity to participate in three ADL approved activities that address bias and bullying through discussion, active learning, and a follow-up action plan. Upon completion of each approved activity, fill out the online activity form, and submit supplemental materials (press releases, articles, photos, videos, etc.).

Schools that complete these four steps receive a customized banner designating their school No Place for Hate®!
