But what will it take to bring that about?<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Without question, it will require an attitude of kindness and decency, being willing to communicate, to understand the needs of others. A\u00a0recognition of the sanctity of every life. Being willing to help.<\/p>\n

The Church of Scientology sponsors humanitarian\u00a0programs that\u00a0address\u00a0factors that underlie\u00a0exclusion.<\/p>\n

United for Human Rights and its sister organization for young people, Youth for Human Rights,\u00a0help people understand the rights that every man, woman or child has simply by virtue of being human. The\u00a0Story of Human Rights<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>documentary is a fresh and clever presentation of history from the perspective of human rights and the breakthrough represented by the work done to\u00a0codify these rights in the U.N. Universal Declaration of Human Rights. That document, which might\u00a0be beyond the grasp of youngsters, is conveyed in terms and images children and teens easily grasp through 30 public service announcements, one for each article in that document.<\/p>\n

The effectiveness of these videos is evidenced by the changes educators notice in the attitudes of children who study them. For example, one very serious form of marginalization that affects young people is bullying.<\/p>\n

According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention,\u00a0Suicide is the third leading cause of death among 15- to 24-year-olds,
\n15% of high school students seriously considered suicide in the past 12 months and 7% reported making at least one suicide attempt in the previous year.<\/p>\n

Teachers who implement the Youth for Human Rights educational curriculum in their classrooms report a noticeable decrease in bullying, with pupils discussing the subject and expressing a shift in viewpoint and a desire to treat others with more compassion in the future.<\/p>\n
