Health Information Project

Be a part of the health revolution in your community! HIP empowers high school students to tackle the health crises of their generation.

Health Information Project (HIP) is a not-for-profit organization whose purpose is to empower high school students to tackle the health crises of their generation through a school-based, peer-to-peer, comprehensive health education program. Through interactive peer-led health discussion sessions, multimedia presentations, social marketing and health promotion activities, HIP provides an innovative

approach to health education and healthcare access. HIP believes that it is not only important to give students information but to also emphasize the importance of preventive health care and to assist students in accessing health care services in their local community. Since its founding in 2009, HIP has trained over 21,000 student peer health educators and has taught over 425,000 ninth graders.

At HIP, we talk often about leadership, empathy, and showing up for your community. This Memorial Day, we honor the men and women who embodied those values through extraordinary service and sacrifice. May we continue building communities rooted in care, responsibility, and support for one another.

So inspired after our visit to Miami Killian!

Incredible peer educators. Strong student leaders. Real conversations that matter.

Mrs. Rios is truly tremendous—her leadership makes this work possible.

Grateful to welcome community members into the classroom to see HIP in action.

This is what it looks like when students lead.

Today is World Teen Mental Health Day.

When teens lead the conversation, stigma shrinks and support grows. That’s the power of peer leadership.

Let’s keep building schools where it’s safe to speak up, reach out, and take care of our health.

Check in on a friend today. A simple “How are you really?” can mean everything.
