September 14-18, 2026

You may know social isolation is a very real epidemic. It can cause kids to pull away and, in serious situations, even hurt themselves or others. Start With Hello is a program that teaches students to be more socially inclusive and connected to each other. With activities and curriculum available for all ages, students are empowered to end social isolation in three easy steps:
- See Someone Alone
- Reach Out + Help
- Start with Hello
