The New Mexico Peer-to-Peer Helper (YP2PH) program is sponsored by the NMDOH OSAH. The program is based on the premise that when young people have problems, they most often turn to friends whom they trust for help, and that every school has an informal “helping network.” The YP2PH program’s objectives are to promote youth helping their peers, youth-adult partnership, and positive youth development. The YP2PH program incorporates the evidence-based program Positive Youth Development and the promising practices of Natural Helpers Program.
