Miss Universe Cayman Islands, Ileann Powery, attended the Planning for Youth Success Conference, where she gave a speech on behalf of The United Against Bullying Foundation on Peaceful Conflict Resolution. In addition to these presentations, this event allowed different organizations who support young people in the Cayman Islands to set up booths to display their services throughout the day.
Ileann Powery and the National Director of the Miss Universe Cayman Islands Organization, Derri Lee, had a real and open conversation at the Planning for Youth Success Conference. They shared their honest experiences and thoughts about bullying in hopes of encouraging others to start their own conversation on the matter. Bringing awareness to the topic of bullying can help others heal and let them know they are not alone.
