Summary

The research will examine the effects of enhanced peer mentor interactions on facilitating a successful transition to community living following traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). Participants in the research will be assigned to either (1) the control group that will receive traditional peer mentor types of interactions or (2) to the intervention group that will receive an enhanced peer mentor program called the One-on-One Initiative. Assignment to one of these two groups will occur randomly on admission to Shepherd Center; the only stratifying criteria is injury level - C6 and above vs. C7 and below.
