We are David and Tina Long.  Since Tyler's death in 2009 from Bullycide, we have worked with countless organizations, schools, and individuals to keep another family from having to bury a child.  Tyler was bullied for years; Tyler had Asperger's Syndrome.  Our voices will not fall silent until a difference is made.  Being a part of the film 'Bully' allowed us to tell Tyler's story.  Now, we are focusing on solutions.  The Everything Starts with 1 project is dedicated to bring those solutions to communities around the world.   Dads of Great Students is a national program currently operating in 47 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, Mexico and even China.
