Officials from various agencies will be on hand to discuss bullying and suicide prevention.

Separate sessions are available for adults and youth.
Free refreshments and food are available, as is childcare for children 3 years old to second grade.
Among the participating agencies are the Maricopa County Attorney's Office, Crisis Response Network, the Dysart Unified School District, and Teen Lifeline.
