Take the Pledge to #CutTheBull

Kids with physical disabilities are twice as likely to be bullied. At Shriners Hospitals for Children®, we get to know thousands of patients who are coping with orthopaedic conditions, spinal cord injuries, burns, or cleft lip or palate. And it breaks our heart to think they may be subjected to abuse when they return to school.

Help us take a stand against bullying by taking the pledge to #CutTheBull.

We're so proud to have former patient and award-winning actor, RJ Mitte serve as part of this effort. RJ has spoken eloquently about his experiences:

"I was born with cerebral palsy, and my disability made me a target for bullies. I was harassed, knocked down and even had my hand broken. But, I was lucky. I had my friends, my family, and Shriners Hospitals for Children to help me become stronger — inside and out."

That's why Shriners Hospitals for Children's care doesn't stop at the hospital door. Together, we can #CutTheBull and put an end to bullying. We have the ability to make a difference. We can embrace others for who they are, not who we think they should be.

Please, sign the pledge to #CutTheBull today.
