The 11th Annual OKIA Youth Conference and Anti-Bullying Rally was a HUGE success!

On Friday, December 2, 2011, over 2,000 enthusiastic and bright middle school students attended the 11th Annual Our Kids in Action Youth Conference at SUNY Farmingdale to take action against bullying in an Anti-Bullying Rally!

This year’s keynote speaker was Jamie Isaacs, a 15-year-old Long Island girl with a mission to put an end to bullying attacks among adolescents. She has her own foundation for Anti-Bullying and is currently working alongside State Senator Jeff Klein in attempt to make cyber-bullying a crime comparable to stalking.

Through the generosity of Long Island corporate and private sponsors, the Conference is was provided FREE of charge to Long Island middle school students and their teachers. The conference supports school curriculum that foster character education, self-respect and leadership within the community.
