To help combat bullying and raise awareness about this growing problem, Senator Jack M. Martins (R-Mineola) and East Coast MMA & Fitness recently presented a free bullying prevention program in Hicksville for families.

     The free program, entitled “Bully-Proof Your Child,” helped raise awareness about bullying, discussed the problem, and offered proactive steps about preventing bullying and helping someone who is being bullied.
