    Mission Statement

    The club trains and presents during designated study halls. The Health Information Project (HIP) is a non-profit organization that aims to support, inform, and empower young people. HIP accomplishes this by training high school juniors and seniors to teach health education to their freshman peers through a peer-to-peer model. This innovative approach is revolutionizing health education by creating safe, supportive, and inclusive high school campuses. HIP is committed to making sure that no kid feels alone and is determined to ensure that every kid in the United States is healthy - both physically and emotionally.             

    How to join: Sophomore and Junior students can apply to the club starting in the April of each school year. Applications are reviewed and interviews are conducted to determine if that student is a fit for the program.
