Port towns youth council (ptyc) is ethm's character and leadership development program. Youth are known as wellness ambassadors who lead their peers and other pgc residents in healthy and safety initiatives, and they advocate for social justice issues, which help shape public policies that positively impact the lives of youth and families. Their mission is to bridge the gap of education, health, poverty, safety, and morality to build, sustain, unite, heal, and impact communities. Ptyc is youth-led and students attend monthly meetings (with their parents) to develop their character and leadership skills and to plan for community outreach activities/events, which have a direct impact on students' character by serving various pgc residents. Students are emersed in peer mediation techniques that equips them to provide insights to the principal or her designee regarding students' problems in the school. Although these wellness ambassadors will learn how to mediate problems between peers, ethm's peer mediation program will focus on establishing a peer mediation council of mature students who will work with the principal's designee to identify students' concerns and problems and enlighten the principal or her designee on how to resolve student problems. This program will not risk introducing students to possible harm or threats to their safety.
