“The Words Can Heal Campaign, sponsored by the Jerusalem Fund, is a visionary national media and educational campaign designed to reduce verbal violence and gossip. The goal of the campaign is to promote the value and the practice of ethical speech in order to improve our democracy and to build mutual respect, honor and dignity to our country. The Words Can Heal Campaign launched a media campaign on September 4, 2001, right here in our Nation's Capital. The campaign includes posters in D.C. Metro stations and bus shelters. It includes advertisements in newspapers, such as Roll Call, and publications such as the National Journal, Congressional Quarterly, and television ads on all major networks. The campaign also includes educational modules for use in schools, in companies, community centers, government offices, houses of worship, every building throughout the Nation. We can all practice and participate in this initiative to improve our society and make a difference in the lives of millions of Americans, one word at a time. In the aftermath of the tragedy of September 11, the Words Can Heal Campaign is now more important than ever.”
