New Program Offers Treatment For Bullying



BURLINGTON, Wash. -- A mental health and addiction treatment center in Burlington has a new program to get bullies to change their ways.

The Follman Agency is now offering treatment for adult and child bullies to local schools and families.

Jim Fullman with the Follman Agency says the program is nearly unprecedented...



He says bullying can be treated, and their program can get bullies to learn new ways to deal with people without being abusive.

The national bullying prevention center has deemed October as "National Bullying Prevention Month."

Bullies who want to be rehabilitated can contact the Follman Center at (360) 755-1125.
