 f Respect\nFairfax Partnership for Youth\, Inc. will launch its new comm
 unity-based program\, Bully-Free NoVa: A Community of Respect.&nbsp\; Th
 e launch reception will take place on November 13\, 2012\, at the James 
 Lee Community Center\, 2855 Annandale Road #101\, Falls Church\, VA 2204
 2\, from 5:00 p.m. &ndash\; 6:30 p.m.\nFPY&rsquo\;s bullying prevention 
 training team will provide an overview of the new bullying awareness and
  prevention program. All community supporters of the anti-bullying movem
 ent should attend this free event.\nYouth report that they are bullying 
 and being bullied now more than ever before. All youth are vulnerable\, 
 but those with special needs\, racial/ethnic minorities\, and LGBT youth
  are at even greater risk. The social and emotional effects of chronic b
 ullying\, including cyberbullying\, can be lasting and devastating for i
 ndividuals\, families\, and the entire community.\nPeople who are bullie
 d in the workplace have higher rates of depression\, anxiety\, low self-
 esteem\, health problems\, poor job and/or school performance and suicid
 al thoughts. Workplace bullying and harassment increases the work load o
 n mental health providers\, raises insurance rates and cost of health ca
 re\, and emotionally takes a toll on families\, friends\, and colleagues
  in the work place.\nLaunch reception attendees will learn:\nThe basics 
 of FPY&rsquo\;s program approach\n&nbsp\;How to get their community-base
 d organization or business involved\nHow to support and be a part of thi
 s ongoing initiative\n\nParticipants can register at www.fairfaxyouth.or

 education and training\, advocates for effective programs and policy dev
 elopment\, and builds strong community partnerships&hellip\;o help youth
  thrive.\n\nFairfax Partnership for Youth&rsquo\;s efforts to prevent an
 d address bullying would not be possible without the continued support o
