Research shows that both bullies and those regularly victimized are more likely to become criminals. Since bullying in schools has an effect on all students, schools need information and programs to establish preventive measures. This one-day seminar looks at the risk factors for bullies and offers practical tips for administrators, teachers, parents, and students to create a bully-free environment.

The six components of the workshop include:

• Research on bullying
• Why children bully
• Characteristics of victims
• What administrators can do
• Skill building for students
• A school-wide approach
