School District Program to Guard Against Workplace Bullying
By Meagan Sexton | Posted: Friday, September 18, 2009 SIOUX CITY — The Sioux City Community School District wants to practice what it teaches by developing an anti-bullying program for adults. The district already has a program in place for students, but this week, about 20 district employees, including teachers, janitors, administrators and counselors, gathered at the Northwest Area Education Agency to brainstorm and create a bullying-prevention program for themselves and their co-workers. The district is the first in the nation to launch an anti-bullying program with advocates trained to hear complaints from employees, according to the **Workplace Bullying Institute** in Bellingham, Wash., which is partnering with the Waitt Institute for Violence Prevention in North Sioux City **to provide training**.
