Fourth Wednesday in October: Unity Day

Unity Day is observed in the USA on the third or fourth Wednesday in October as part of National Bullying Prevention Month, which was initiated by PACER's National Bullying Prevention Center in 2006. Established in 2011, Unity Day aims to unite individuals in schools, communities, and online against bullying. Participants are encouraged to wear orange, a color chosen for its vibrant, warm, and inviting qualities, symbolizing safety and visibility. This day has garnered support from various celebrities, including Ellen DeGeneres and Anderson Cooper, and is promoted by organizations such as Disney/ABC Family and Cartoon Network. Unity Day serves as a platform for people to express their solidarity against bullying, extending participation beyond schools to workplaces and communities.
