The Samaritans of Boston approached WPI with a problem with their current communication system in reaching out to teenagers in need. Based on the researches that were done and guidelines put forth by the Samaritans, text messaging and instant messaging were found to be the most utilized forms of communication among teenagers. And a business model for each system was put into place with standards and price approximations for each system proposed.
