The Long Island Coalition Against Bullying supports our work through its Youth Board, an enthusiastic and talented group of individuals in middle, high school and college who are passionate and dedicated to combatting bullying in their Long Island communities.
The mission of the Youth Board is to assist, extend and promote the efforts of LICAB through activities such as:
The Youth Board is broken down into two parts: the Executive Youth Board comprised of college age students, and the General Youth Board comprised of students grades 8-12.
I joined the youth board to use my voice and story to help other students who have endured bullying. Unfortunately bullying continues to be an issue all across the country and I wanted to be able to play a part in stopping it from occurring
I am a division 1 athlete and auditioned for ‘The Voice’.
Two of our victims of bullying in any way possible with the primary objective to curtail childhood and adolescence suicide from a consequence of arpeggiated bullying.
I am pre-law.
I joined the youth board because I support the cause. I think the work the youth board does others. I joined the youth board as an intern at Farmingdale State College and was glad to hear I can continue. I was bullied in elementary so I know the feeling when you fell you have no one to talk to.
I can binge-watch a show in one whole day. I am a good multitasker and I like to color as it keeps me calm and focused.
To get involved in a good cause.
I love to dance.
To create ways to improve kids bullying situations, and allow kids to have a safe, welcoming environment to learn that they are not alone, and are always worth something, regardless of what others think of them.
I play football and I have a chocolate lab named Coco.
My experiences as an immigrant have made me uniquely capable of supporting those who are excluded. I have naturally been drawn to volunteer activities that impact the marginalized, especially through efforts to combat bullying in my community. I joined LICAB because of our shared mission and the opportunity to contribute locally. In addition, LICAB is the largest anti-bullying organization on Long Island, where most families seek help and where I can have the most impact.
I am a die-hard Chelsea FC fan.
I joined the youth board because i’ve always had passion in helping others, and I want to help make a difference by educating, spreading awareness, and supporting others who have experienced bullying. To work with a team towards creating a support system for anyone, as well as implementing ideas that can create connections within communities.
I love to sing and dance!
