Participate

Kids, coaches, parents, teachers, friends and relatives. Bullying is everyone’s problem, and if we want it to stop, we can’t look the other way. We have to be willing to “Call it when we see it.”

That’s why it’s so important to participate in the Red Card campaign. We give you the resources to make a difference. All you have to do is use them. Together, we can make a difference for kids in the greater Kansas City area.

Pledge to Call it When You See It

Take the pledge. Together, we can stop bullying in the greater Kansas City area.

Become a School Partner

Red Card is a free campaign provided thanks to a partnership between Children’s Mercy Kansas City and Sporting KC. There’s no cost and no contract for school partners.

The resources we provide participating schools include:

Video with Sporting KC player
IPTV images
Tip cards for all students, teachers and parents in English and Spanish
Elementary school coloring sheets
Print and digital campaign posters for grade and middle school students
Trading card packs for all students

Promotional items
Sports area / stadium signage
Pledge posters addressing body shaming, cyberbullying, verbal abuse, transgender/pronoun use, disability, etc.
T-shirts for student leadership
Weekly announcements and social messages
Teacher resources in our exclusive partner area

In return, all we ask is that school partners distribute Red Card materials as appropriate, share feedback about the campaign with Children’s Mercy, and that students participate in brief surveys before and after implementing the campaign.

This will help us learn more about bullying in our community so that we can continue to address this important issue.

Our Partners

Currently, more than 52 schools across the greater Kansas City area are active partners in the Red Card campaign, and more schools are joining us every day. To participate, email RedCardKC@cmh.edu.
