Understanding Bullying (How to Support your Child)
Presented by Foster and Kinship Care Education
Instructor: Lori Switanowski
In recognition of October as National Bullying Awareness & Prevention Month, we are excited to introduce a new class for our county! While we advocate for stability in the lives of abused and neglected children, it’s crucial to address the emotional and physical abuse that can happen not only at home but also among peers. This workshop will help you identify signs that your child may be experiencing bullying and offer strategies for handling these situations. Caregivers will gain tools to assist children in navigating peer interactions and understanding the emotions at play for all involved.
Your Instructor: Lori Switanowski has been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over 30 years! She is an adoptive mom, an FKCE Program Director alumni and founder of Our Family Comes First, specializing in working with traumatized children and their families. She teaches parenting classes throughout the state of California and Texas. She brings a wealth of both personal and professional experience with her.
