While many high schoolers play sports or head home after school, a group of more than two dozen students is trying to stop bullying.

It’s a student-driven, anti-bullying marketing campaign that will launch in June.

Brien McMahon students helped write scripts, and Cork Factory Films is helping film five short films.

“We're redoing takes and making little changes here and there to make sure we get just the right moment," sophomore Keira Beauregard says. "It’s a really cool experience."

Funding for the project came from a grant awarded to the Norwalk Community Health Center, and organizers say its message is more important than ever because the number of students seeking mental health care is on the rise.

"These are peer-driven videos, the scripts were created by students themselves and their lived experiences which is why we believe it will be powerful," nurse practitioner Rebecca Kaplan says. "The hope is to evoke a reaction out of the person who is watching it to then reach out for help."

Organizers say ads for the anti-bullying campaign will be plastered onto Norwalk billboards, buses and social media in a few weeks.
