Doylestown’s HRC to hold anti-bullying forum

In an effort to both inform the community about bullying and offer expert information on how it can be addressed, the Doylestown Borough Human Relations Commission is presenting a forum on the subject May 24.

The interactive discussion will be held at Doylestown’s borough hall, 10 Doyle St., from 7 to 8:30 p.m. The public is encouraged to attend.

Moderating the event will be Danny Thomas, executive director of The Peace Center in Langhorne.

Four panelists, representing a range of experts on the subject, will explain their programs and respond to written questions from the audience.

The panel includes:

• Adrienne King: NAACP Bucks executive committee.
• Dr. Andrew Kind-Rubin: child and community psychologist. He is the former chief clinical officer of Child Guidance Resource Centers, a community behavioral health center serving children and families in Southeastern Pennsylvania.
• Kris Thompson: associate executive director for Crisis Services and licensed social worker with the Lenape Foundation in Doylestown.
• Mary Worthington: director of Prevention Education and Training at NOVA, Bucks County’s Comprehensive Victim Services Agency.
