Students involved in peer leadership programs help their peers by taking an active role in the school to make it a better place. These students are dedicated to creating and supporting healthy, safe and welcoming schools. By using peer leadership to affect the overall environment of your school, you are increasing protective factors for both those directly involved in peer leadership and your school population as a whole.
The Peer Leadership Guide is a resource designed to provide junior and senior high school staff with important tools and information to implement a peer leadership program, including templates and activities to facilitate a peer leadership group.
