Rhode Island H7114 allows schools to impose community service for bullying based on religious beliefs, sexual orientation, or ethnicity.
Rhode Island H7114 amends the General Laws to include a provision for directed community service as a penalty for bullying based on religious beliefs, sexual orientation, or ethnicity. This service aims to deter future bullying and promote learning, knowledge, and insight. The service can be imposed by a juvenile hearing board or school administration and must be completed within three months. The service is tailored to the specific bullying action, such as performing service at a Holocaust museum for bullying based on Jewish faith.
