Join the Campaign to Delete Cyberbullying from your Living Room on Sunday

Join me, on Sunday July 17th 2011 at 8pm EST or 7pm CST  at my home viewing or by going to your living room, bedroom, friends house, where ever you like to watch TV and put on the ABC Family Network to see the national premier of Cyberbullying and join the campaign to delete cyberbullying and digital drama! On the commercial breaks visit the website http://abcfamily.go.com/movies/cyberbully learn about cyberbullying, other forms of bullying and how you can take actions today to save lives, improve lives, and put an end to put downs, while making it better now!

Join the campaign to delete cyberbullying and digital drama and continue the support so critically needed to counter bullying in all forms, as we get near the start of a new school year in the fall where students in the transition are affected heavily from bullying. Together we are making it better now for the youth and for each others communities.

1- If you see cyberbullying online don’t add to it, delete, ignore or engage with information of how this is harmful.

2- Contact your legislators and tell them you support comprehensive anti bullying legislation/policy.

1. Michigan needs your help, as MI is 1 of 4 states without a state legislation/bill passed to counter bullying in K-12. MI has been in dialogue on it since 2001, and lost many youth and students.
2. MI House Bill 4163  as intro by  Rep. Philip Potvin is moving and needs support to be made enumerated, to have reporting and includes currently tele-communication/cyber. Once made inclusive and comprehensive it needs to be passed. Call the Legislators and tell them you support comprehensive anti bullying legislation with enumeration to be added, (517) 373-1747 for Rep. Philip Potvin
3. MI Senate Bill 137 as intro by Senator Rick Jones of Grand Ledge.  Call Senator Rick Jones (517) 373-3447
   to tell him you support the efforts SB137 but to be inclusive it needs to have the high risk populations to be addressed and acknowledged the problem so we can work on it, thus we must have enumeration added.
4. Federally, tell your legislators you support Safe Schools Improvement Act and Student Non Discrimination Act as intro by GLSEN and recommended by Secretary of Education Arne Duncan. Find your legislator and how to contact them – http://www.usa.gov/Contact/Elected.shtml

3- Get educated, and support legislative advocacy efforts to pass anti bullying legislation in MI -
