NEWS RELEASE
The Diversity Center of Northeast Ohio will host its annual Spring Middle School Conference with a focus on cyberbullying and social media. The Spring Conference will be held on March 7, 2012, at John Carroll University. This year’s theme, “StandOUT: Live the Life You’ve Imagined”, will help focus the discussions and activities. The students who attend the Spring Conference come from urban, suburban, private, parochial, and rural schools from nine counties in Northeast Ohio. While at the Conference, students are divided into core or small groups with students from schools different from their own. Students will explore the links between media and social relationships, unpack the myths and truths surrounding electronic safety, meet students from schools throughout Northeast Ohio, and leave with tools and resources to combat cyberbullying in their own school communities.
The ultimate goal of the Spring Conference is to create diversity leaders and to give students the tools they need to go back to their school communities and enact positive change. In light of the current events in Northeast Ohio, this Conference, with a focus on cyber-bullying and social media, is more important than ever.
A High School Conference with similar themes and activities will be held on April 25, 2012, at John Carroll University.
The program is one of many initiatives of the Diversity Center of Northeast Ohio whose mission is to eliminate bias, bigotry, and racism. The organization works to create communities where all people are connected, respected, and valued.
