Positive Peers was simply to be an activity used with a group of young persons whether a classroom, a whole class in a school or perhaps even the entire school. The hope was to foster the development of youth in a way that would improve their performance as well as that of the school organization by using a tightly constructed activity.While the book is not about newly discovered concepts, it is about a new and fresh total approach in the use of established concepts, some better known than others. It is about organizing around those concepts in new ways using a youth-centered system to produce higher functioning youth and youth organizations.
