Mission
Stand Together is a non-profit corporation committed to raising awareness and promoting action to prevent bullying. It provides the definition of bullying and where to find additional forms of support, including mental health and suicide prevention resources. By raising awareness, we empower students, parents, teachers, administrators, and law enforcement to take action and also stand with us to prevent bullying. Stand Together seeks to promote action to prevent bullying by informing all of policies, procedures, legislation, and laws. Through this action, we pray the act of bullying is eliminated. While Stand Together recognizes this is a lofty goal, we must endeavor to do more and better for our youth.

Revenue vs. expenses: breakdown
Financial data
Stand Together Louisiana
Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
