Planning Unit: Bracken County CES
Major Program: Substance Use and Mental Health – 4-H Youth Development
Plan of Work: Healthy Lifestyles for Bracken County Residents
Outcome: Intermediate Outcome
According to the 2019 Youth Risk Behavior Survey conducted by the CDC 18% of students in Kentucky have been a victim of cyberbullying. The Bracken County 4-H teamed up with School Resource Officer to provide 5th grade students a better understanding of cyberbullying. The SRO reported that the majority of issues he deals with in the middle school stem from cyberbullying. Therefore, we approached 5th grade teachers with the idea that this lesson will better prepare the students for the transition to middle school with a greater understanding of cyberbullying. The lesson focused of the many different types of cyberbullying and 30% of students were unaware that there were more types of cyberbullying than just on social media. We are hoping to grow this program into possibly a school wide awareness event seeing the need for it.
