Annually, about 200 USC students are placed in local high school classrooms to teach TIRP topics.
The continuous use of materials and strategies in local outreach is leveraged to pilot new approaches and hone teaching materials made available as a global resource... Thus our motto:

to teach and mentor
over 35,000 high school students
