First thing is to get an attorney who can help you determine what you can and can't offer on this website. The last thing you need is a lawsuit from the parents of a child who gets killed because she confronted a bully based on information on your website. You'll need to get specific wording from the attorney so you are covered.

A site that lists resources shouldn't be a problem, but make sure you get permission to list non-public resources on your website.

Tips on how to deal with bullying are great, as long as they are tried and true. You don't want to be straying too far outside of the accepted areas on this. And, obviously, you don't want to incite violence of any kind.

If you wish to have a forum, figure out how you will moderate it. Y!A is a great example of self-moderation and how it utterly fails. I strongly recommend *you* monitor it and possibly appoint others as assistant moderators. Yahoo does have a groups area that allows you, as the founder, to have all kinds of control over moderation, posts, and membership.

As far as cyberbullying, the number one recommendation for any child dealing with it is to have an honest conversation with their parents and to turn the computer and cell phone off. Real life friends are needed. Hobbies are needed. Don't get into this idea of "beating" cyberbullying. Get the child out of the situation. No Facebook, no fb bullying.
