Jaylen's Challenge

Jaylen is a 10 year old boy who is in the fourth grade. Jaylen suffers from Tourette's syndrome, Asperger's syndrome and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Jaylen has faced his fair share of bullying by the kids at his school and he wants to put a stop to bullying of students...especially students who are disabled.

I discovered Jaylen's story one night when I was watching a show on the Discovery Health Channel called Tourette's Uncovered where Jaylen shared his story about his disability. During his segment of the one hour show he showed how he goes around to other schools and talks to students about bullying and how he wants it to stop. Once I saw that I thought that his efforts would be perfect for mine and Jessica's service plan on bullying.

Take a look at Jaylen's project for yourself....
