NY Times bestselling author and bullying survivor turned activist, Jodee Blanco, will deliver a bullying survival and prevention seminar to the David City Community. Jodee is the author of four books on bullying, including the seminal
New York Times bestseller
Please Stop Laughing At Me. She travels to schools, sharing her story to save lives, and has spoken to over a half-million people worldwide.
Jodee's 90-minute family seminar and workshop will include:
- Jodee's story of struggle as the target of severe school bullying, as well as what her parents and teachers did that helped; what didn't and why; and insights from the thousands of students she has worked with across the nation
- Specific, practical advice for adults on how to intervene with a victim, bully or bystander, from the rare point of view of someone who's lived through it
- Insights into the plight of the "adult survivor of peer abuse" and suggestions on how to overcome those open wounds from the past
Families are encouraged to attend and have the opportunity to speak with Jodee following the presentation.
