Heckenlaible-Gotto, Myra J.; Roggow, Linda
Reclaiming Children and Youth: The Journal of Strength-based Interventions, v15 n4 p220-226 Win 2007
A social worker and a psychologist, working with troubled youth in a day treatment setting, describe unique ways to use the concepts of Positive Peer Culture (PPC) to facilitate groups from the elementary to high school levels. The authors have adapted the well-known PPC concepts and incorporated them into their strength-based program, SPLASH, to promote problem solving (Heckenlaible-Gotto & Roggow, in development). (Contains 1 table.)
