Meet the Moment!

TIRP is an opportunity to help “build the change” with innovation in teaching complex issues & tackling wicked problems!
>>> Engage with local youth to look ahead together through these challenging times.

TIRPers are the force behind the CALIS mission to promote student-driven analysis.
>>> Teams use interactive strategies, guiding high school students with analytical tools that sharpen critical thinking.

Teaching skills are career skills!
>>> TIRPers become adept at unpacking complex issues, engaging an audience, facilitating discussion, debriefing main ideas, making relevant connections!

TIRP is meaningful & fun!
>>> A great way to be part of the USC tradition of community engagement & service!
