Barbara Coloroso is an international bestselling author and for the past 38 years an internationally recognized speaker and consultant on parenting, teaching, school discipline, positive school climate, bullying, grieving, nonviolent conflict resolution and restorative justice.
Coloroso will be in Nanaimo on Tuesday April 14, 2015 to speak and introduce an updated and expanded new edition of her book, The Bully, the Bullied and the not so innocent Bystander: From Preschool to High School and Beyond: Breaking the Cycle of Violence and Creating Safe and More Deeply Caring Communities. It has become the definitive guide to bullying prevention and intervention since it was first published over a decade ago.
The NanGo Grannies, a group dedicated to supporting the work of Stephen Lewis, is sponsoring Barbara Coloroso’s Nanaimo visit. The socially aware and engaged “grannies” hope to raise awareness of the pervasive issue of bullying, while raising funds to support the needs of grandmothers in sub-Saharan Africa who care for orphans of the HIV pandemic.
We speak with Barbara Coloroso, and with Elizabeth Vreede and Joanne Bevis of the NanGo Grannies.
