Houston, TX 77088

Our children need our help!
Look at the Statistics:
    One out of every four students (22%) report being bullied during the school year.(National Center for Educational Statistics, 2015)
    Students who experience bullying are at increased risk for poor school adjustment, sleep difficulties, anxiety, and depression. (Center for Disease Control, 2015)
    There is a strong association between bullying and suicide-related behaviors, but this relationship is often mediated by other factors, including depression and delinquency. (Hertz, Donato, and Wright, 2013)
We will discuss what kids and parents need to know about bullying.
          
Come join us for learning and fun!            
This event is sponsored by the Houston Local Organizing Committee’s Education Workforce in collaboration with Justice or Else (Southwest). For more information, please contact Kenisha Graves at 832-989-8042 or email her at kenishad1@hotmail.com.
