[LM_NET] Know about the Ophelia Project?

[Andrea Koch <kochandrea@MSN.COM>]

My principal is interested in purchasing and implementing some materials from a 
group called The Ophelia Project.  This is the description from the website 
(http://www.opheliaproject.org/):

"Founded in Erie, Pennsylvania in 1997, The Ophelia Project is a national nonprofit 
organization that began as one community’s decision to increase parental and 
community support for adolescents. Today, we have grown to become one of the 
nation’s leading experts in identifying relational aggression and creating safe 
social climates in schools and communities."

The books are through American Girl and the Ophelia Project.  They are:

1. Chrissa by Mary Casanova
2. Chrissa Stands Strong by Mary Casanova
3. Stand Up for Yourself  & Your Friends by Patti KelleyCriswell

He would also like to buy the DVD that follows the book closely and comes
with all sorts of discussion topics for students to engage in
conversation.  

Anyone know about this organization and its programs?  It deals with bullying, 
cyberbulling, spreading rumors, etc, etc.

Thanks for any input you can give.

Sincerely,

Andrea Michele Koch
