New Business
Preventing bullying is the goal. Every year, people are bullied face-to-face and online through social media, texts and gaming chats. In one recent study of 32 countries 4 in 10 teens reported being involved in a bullying incident. Our goal is to help our Aktion Club members respond to bullying and be a positive force to stop bullying and support victims.
Cyberbullying occurs when one person or a group of people use electronic means via computers or mobile phones to torment, threaten, harass, humiliate, embarrass or target another person.
Review the resource ‘Adults Get Bullied Too‘ created by the State Council on Developmental Disabilities, Los Angeles, CA, to understand exactly how adults with disabilities are bullied and actions that can be taken to stop this bullying.
What can we each do to change the perception of adults with disabilities? What can we do to stop bullying and cyberbullying?
Home project
Research online resources to find suggestions about how to deal with this big problem. Bring your ideas to the next club meeting, where we’ll discuss projects that our Aktion Club members can do.
