Book Launch Reminder:  

Tuesday, May 29th, 2012 at White Oaks Conference Resort and Spa at 7 p.m., and we hope you'll join us!

Laurie Flasko shares a powerful story of torment, trauma, and healing as she chronicles her daughter Amanda’s journey through bullying. From Amanda’s poignant first-hand account of her experiences with bullying in elementary school and Laurie’s perspective as a concerned mother, learn how bullying took a severe toll, resulting in years of chaos and a diagnosis of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. In Bullying is Not a Game.

 We hope that this new book will serve as a practical guide for parents of bullied children, to show them that there is hope, and that recovery is possible. We stress that the parents are their child's best advocate, and provide a host of resources to help parents navigate the very muddy waters of bullying. This book is endorsed by Dr. Debra Pepler of York University who wrote the foreword. The book also includes submissions from Niagara Regional Police Services, the District School Board of Niagara, our local Distress Centre, and several community stakeholders and private practitioners who are concerned about the effects of bullying. 

We are holding the official launch of the book on Tuesday, May 29th, 2012 at White Oaks Conference Resort and Spa at 7 p.m., and we hope you'll join us!
