NBPC research cited in new guide on bullying

Posted: 2/16/2018

A new bullying prevention guide titled “Superheroes Wear Mom Jeans” cites research from PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center to empower parents of young children. The book’s message is that parent leadership can help children navigate bullying situations.

The guide was produced by Tangled Ball, an organization that provides high-quality information and resources for parents, parent groups, and schools to help families during the pre-K through elementary school years. “Superheroes Wear Mom Jeans” uses expert research, personal stories, and a sense of humor to help parents understand the complicated issue of bullying.

In addition to PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center, the guide cited research from Harvard, Yale, Committee for Children, the Alberti Center for Bullying Abuse Prevention, and International Bullying Prevention Association.

“Superheroes Wear Mom Jeans” is available on Amazon and Kindle. It also includes discussion questions to be used in group conversations and workshops.
