HIP
Club Description: 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.
