The challenges facing America's youth are multifaceted and include violence, drug abuse, gangs, school dropouts, suicide, delinquency, and despair. As President Bush made addressing these issues an agenda item during his second term, putting the youth in national spotlight, it is tempting to develop more programs designed to fix kids by providing mentors, coaches, special education services, and other pull-out programs. While these programs may be helpful, they are not sufficient. Americans need to advocate for the transformation of the environments where youth live and breathe. They need to push for a national agenda where the top priority is to focus on building positive peer cultures every place young people interact. Further, they should demand that teachers, parents, youth workers, politicians, and others concerned with youth identify, appreciate, and celebrate each young person's strengths as well as weaknesses. In this article, the author explores the power of positive peer relationships and ways in which adults can assist in developing positive peer cultures in education and treatment settings.
