14. Upstander
An “upstander” is someone who recognizes when
something is wrong and acts to make it right. When an
upstander sees or hears about someone being bullied,
they speak up. Being an upstander is being a hero: we
are standing up for what is right and doing our best to
help support and protect someone who is being hurt.
