Think College Insight Brief #21 focuses on peer mentoring, where current students are matched with new students, and the significant impact it can have on the transition occurs.

In South Carolina, the College of Charleston (C of C) uses peer mentoring as a fundamental component of its REACH (Realizing Educational and Career Hopes) Program for students with ID.
