Various studies show benefits to at-risk students who serve as tutors to younger
students, including academic achievement in reading and mathematics, and
promising effects for those involved in tutoring programs.
For over 35 years, the IDRA Valued Youth Partnership has worked with students who are at-risk of academic disengagement by providing meaningful leadership experiences. The outcomes have positively affected student’s confidence and self-worth, attendance and academic achievement.

The Valued Youth Partnership, created by the Intercultural Development Research Association, is an internationally-recognized, cross-age tutoring program with an unusual twist. This dropout prevention program works by identifying junior high and high school students in at-risk situations and enlisting them as tutors for elementary school youngsters who are also struggling in school. Given this role of personal and academic responsibility, the Valued Youth tutors learn self-discipline and develop self-esteem. Schools shift to the philosophy and practices of valuing students considered at-risk.

Her is so inspiring 🤩 To hear about how she advocated for racial equity to how she invented color changing stitches, and all the risks she took in between.
