Positive Peer Culture is a total system for building a positive youth subculture. It is a comprehensive strategy for dealing with the problems of youth, and teaches students to assume responsibility for helping one another.

Built around small groups of youth under the guidance of an adult leader, PPC is designed to “turn around” a negative youth subculture and mobilize the power of the peer group in a productive manner. Youth in PPC groups learn how to identify problems and how to work toward their resolution. In group sessions and in day-to-day activities, the goal is to fully involve young people in the helping process.
