Recognizing and Responding to
Cyberbullying
Cyberbullying is a growing problem which affects almost half of all U.S. teens. Because this harassment occurs online or via text messaging, it takes place out of the view of adults, leaving them unaware of the problem or unsure of how to respond. Name-calling, degrading jokes, and other non-physical forms of bullying may escalate into threats of physical harm and violence.
Conference speakers will address ways to recognize and respond to cyberbullying as well as how to prevent future incidents of hate and harassment.
