INTERVIEW

In this episode of Catalyst Radio we learn about the anti-bullying nonprofit effort called End Bullying, Save Lives. President of the organization Sheri Munsell joins us in studio today to talk about the series of community discussions being held on the topic of bullying – starting with answering the question: “Does bullying happen here?”.  With that first community gathering answering the question with a yes, the free, open discussions next are focusing on awareness and solutions. Munsell will tell us about a number of upcoming opportunities to learn more and participate.
