Peer-to-Peer
Our Peer-to-Peer program began began with six high school youth who wanted to address peer conflict. They established Peer-to-Peer as an approach to empowering youth to notice conflict in their lives and to establish healthy approaches to resolve it. In the fall and spring, students of Hudson High School spend two months researching an area of conflict. We meet at Hudson High School Monday nights from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., divide into groups of three to five and plan an interactive and informative presentation on a specific identified area of conflict.
This fall Hudson High School students in grades nine through twelve researched the four types of bullying, emotional, verbal, physical and cyber-bullying. On November 21st and 22nd they presented to the fifth grade classes of E.P. Rock, Willow River, River Crest, North Hudson and St. Patricks addressing what bullying is, who is involved in bullying and what can be done to combat bullying.

Spring Peer-to-Peer Confidence and Cyber Communication
On April 3, 2012 students of Peer-to-Peer will present to the sixth, seventh, and eighth graders of Hudson Middle School. The topics for spring Peer-to-Peer will be Cyber Communication presented to the sixth graders and Confidence presented to the seventh and eighth graders. We will be meeting Monday evenings from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in room #445 at Hudson High School to plan our presentations.
Cyber Communication includes text messaging, instant messaging, chat rooms, and personal Web sites that increase the speed of multiple, simultaneous interaction. These advances in technology provide opportunities for youth to reach out to new sources of knowledge and cultural experiences. Along with these changing modes of communication there is a need for school counselors to assist parents and school personnel in protecting their students from harm.
Characteristics of Self-Confidence include ambition. People with high self-confidence believe that they can achieve their dreams and goals with undying work and perseverance. Youth Action Hudson works hard to increase personal expectations for a positive future
