Alexandra Penn, founder of Champions Against Bullying and author of the award winning educational CD-ROM, “The No-Nonsense Guide To Kids’ Bullying Solutions,” is a leading expert on school bullying/youth violence. She is an Internationally Certified Trainer in Youth Violence Prevention, crisis intervention specialist, accomplished writer-editor, workshop leader, keynote speaker, counselor and founding member of the Coalition for Bullying Awareness and Prevention in Canada. A former counselor in Special Ed at the Board of Education, Penn’s breakthrough with an autistic child initiated a video that was used as a teaching tool at the world-renowned Clarke Institute of Psychiatry.

Creator of the Prevention – Intervention – Solutions model used in every Champions Against Bullying program, Penn passionately upholds the organization’s mandate: To create a society where every child can develop, learn and thrive in an environment without fear, without violence and without limitation. Champions Against Bullying’s workshops cover bullying from A-Z and deal with the bully, the victim and the bystander, addressing children from pre-school to high school. Workshops and keynotes are tailored for parents, educators, universities, associations and corporations.

Penn maintains, “Children’s mental health is directly linked to their academic success and removing the obstacles that impede learning, such as fear, are crucial. Together, we can widen every child’s circle of opportunity for tomorrow’s future leaders. ”
