Rise Above Bullying: Empower and Advocate for Your Child provides research-based and legally grounded guidance that will enable parents to gain greater insight into how to support their bullied child. This resource helps prepare parents on how to empower their child and advocate on how schools should take the necessary actions to get this harmful environment to stop.

In Rise Above Bullying, Nancy E. Willard, M.S., J.D., a respected voice in the field of bullying and youth trauma, provides valuable insight on:
