HOT SPRINGS - Renowned national youth motivational speaker Gabrielle (Gabe) Ford brought a message of tolerance and anti-bullying to area K-8 students Thursday at Case Auditorium.
During their sessions Thursday at the school, Gabe and Izzy spoke about how bullying and name calling had affected her when she became confined to a wheelchair and the struggles she endured to overcome.
Ford encouraged the kids not to bully people just because they look different, are handicapped or have a different skin color.
