So, I hate to ask this because I feel like I'm asking people to do my homework for me. But I've been trying for days and I haven't found anything so

Sorry, I tended to turn my anxiety and rage onto my bullies, so I was never bullied by the same party twice (I was a vicious prankster and they tended to fit into my locker better than I did, besides). I hope you find the resources you need, though.

for bullying and PWD have a look at Dave Hingsburger's blog, he does a lot of work around this http://davehingsburger.blogspot.com... )

And IIRC, Dave Hingsburger recently put on his blog a video about bullying and PWD. He really is the go-to resource for good anti-bullying work for PWD. Also, although he was born AB, he developed a physical disability after he started working with PWD, and is gay and fat, and has many interesting things to say on all topics.

AND - I keep meaning to comment and tell you this, but winter and bad brain - recently bought "The Memory Palace" and have it on my TBR pile for when I have my brain back.

Thank you! I will check his blog out and probably add it.

And yay! I hope you like the book when you read it. I'm sorry winter was rough for you. *hug if you want*

Oh wow, thanks so much!

I've not yet interviewed anyone with a disability yet for the book and that's such an important experience I don't want to leave out. could we talk via email? jo.vanderhooft @ gmail.com

I used the search string "ada anti-bullying resources" (without the quotes).

THANK YOU! Oh gosh, I can't believe I didn't think to try a search using ADA. *facepalm*

Hmm, I can ask around.... (For what it's worth, the 'It Gets Better' project was never aimed at trans kids, and the originator is actively transphobic and biphobic. :( )
