Peer mentors provide crucial social, academic, and campus community inclusion supports to students with intellectual disability enrolled in higher education. Research on the perspectives of peer mentors provides valuable insight into the impact that supporting students with intellectual disability has on both the students and the mentors. Research that includes peer mentor reflections on their positive and negative motivations and experiences can help identify effective and ineffective practices within higher education programs for students with intellectual disability. As part of its charge to disseminate research and best practices related to improving higher education for students with intellectual disability, the Think College Inclusive Higher Education Network compiled a list of published research on higher education for students with intellectual disability. A systematic review of research on the perspectives of peer mentors by Carter and McCabe (2021) stood out as having important implications and recommendations for higher education programs for students with intellectual disability. In this Insight Brief, we summarize the findings of Carter and McCabe (2021) and provide recommendations for current or developing higher education programs for students with intellectual disability in implementing best practices for students and peer mentors.
