Sisters Standing Together wants everyone to know they're not alone. They held an anti-bullying and suicide summit with guest speakers, dances and essay readings.
INDIANAPOLIS — Sisters Standing Together held an anti-bullying and suicide summit on Saturday afternoon."Me personally, I have been bullied before," Robinson said."It made me feel sad, but I wasn’t alone," Robinson said.
"The purpose of doing this is to try to save lives of our younger children, teens and young adults," Callie Sanders, founder of Sisters Standing Together, said. "The streets are really rough for them. Life has been rough for them. Suicide is very high and we just want to give them some type of hope and show them another alternative other than a life of crime or misery," Patricia Carter said."The kids are back in school, so they’re going back to the same thing they left this past summer. They’re going back into the downfall and the struggle. They’ve got to go home and no one wants to hear them," Sanders said.
