Human Rights Center Takes a Stand Against Bullying in the Clearwater and Tampa Bay Area
United for Human Rights' Florida chapter is educating hundreds of youth and adults on human rights in order to stop bullying and other human rights violations.
The Centers for Disease Control's most recent report on bullying reveals that 17.8 percent of Floridian female students and 12 percent of male students, from grades 9 to 12, were bullied at school.
King, who has personally educated tens of thousands of youth and adults on their 30 human rights laid out in the United Nation’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights, said his primary question for students is if they were ever bullied before. Dozens of hands are raised each time. “Bullying prevention starts at home and it starts with parents being involved in kids’ choices.” To get everyone talking about school bullying and their 30 inalienable rights at home, UHR Florida will be holding a virtual human rights educator training on Sunday, November 21 at 3 p.m., where individuals can learn how to talk about human rights in a public setting, how to teach human rights using UHR’s free educational booklets and materials and tips on general public speaking.
UHR Florida, whose headquarters is in Clearwater, Florida, announced the seminar is open to anyone wanting to make a difference in their community. “Regardless of what makes someone different from others, they have the right to exist and not be bullied,” said King. “We change our youth. They change our future.”
