Positive Education Program

Since 1971, Positive Education Program has helped troubled and troubling children and youth successfully learn and grow through the Re-ED approach, blending quality education and mental health services in partnership with families, schools, and communities. It started as a small consulting organization established to help schools create strategies to work with their most challenging students. Today, PEP operates many programs including ten Day Treatment Centers, two Early Childhood Centers, Day Care Plus, Help Me Grow, Connections, Tapestry, Group Homes, and PEP Assist. PEP touches the lives of 3,000 children and their families annually.

What is our role in Cuyahoga Tapestry System of Care?
Using a unique mix of traditional mental health services and high-fidelity wrap-around, PEP provides care management to children and youth and their families through PEP Connections and PEP Tapestry. PEP is the first mental health agency in Cuyahoga County to pilot this approach.
