Peer relationships are at the heart of Natural Helpers. An anonymous and optional online survey is distributed to students in participating schools. The survey asks students to name 2¨C3 people they can talk to. Students mentioned the most are invited to become a ¡°Natural Helper.¡±
The Natural Helpers program started in Washington and is widely used in schools across the United States. OSPI is currently piloting a revised version of the program in five Washington school districts including Bainbridge Island, Nespelem, Waitsburg, Raymond, and the PRIDE Prep Charter School.
