From the Paper:

"Today's youth face many difficult challenges as they attempt to seek support for their problems. Peer-to-peer counseling has been known to provide an effective means by which young people may express any personal or academic concerns that they might have. The proposed program will provide peer-to-peer interaction for disadvantaged individuals aged 13-16 who are in need of additional support at a particularly vulnerable stage of life. High school seniors will serve as peer leaders, and they will also provide their younger counterparts with basic skills and training, divided into two primary components: Education and Life Skills. The education component offers students basic study skills, test-taking strategies, and tutoring if the peer leader is knowledgeable in the subject matter. "
