New York, NY (Vocus/PRWEB ) April 23, 2009 -- In the wake of two suicides in two weeks related to bullying and anti-gay bullying, GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, is calling on schools and educators to evaluate their anti-bullying efforts and for federal officials to take action to address the bullying problem.

"Education, community and federal leaders need to come together and find solutions to the endemic problem of bullying in America's schools. We owe it to our children to do everything we can to make sure they are safe in school."
