About HIP: 

HIP is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, based in Miami, Florida. HIP believes that every young person deserves to be physically and emotionally safe and healthy. To achieve this, we use the power of peer education by training high school students to be health teachers.

The traditional health education model, based on adults lecturing with outdated textbooks, scare tactics and cheesy videos, was a complete failure. This archaic model was in desperate need of innovation. But, instead of improving it, states either maintained the status quo or abandoned health education altogether.

We knew it was not enough for kids to only learn about world history, geometry, literature and biology. They needed to be taught how to cope with anxiety, get out of an abusive relationship, help a family member with depression, and support a bullied classmate.

The pandemic only exacerbated the need, causing a mental health emergency among children, adolescents and young adults.

If students are coping with physical and emotional health stressors and distractions, they cannot be successful in the classroom.

So, we came up with a solution.

Kids overwhelmingly prefer learning about health from their peers.

That is why HIP reinvented health education by creating the only peer-to-peer comprehensive program for high school students in the country.

HIP trains high school students to teach health education classes during the academic school day to all 9th graders at their own school.

Utilizing a unique, regularly-updated, science-based curriculum, HIP addresses critical health topics that are relatable and relevant to teens.

The Results: 

• Developing thousands of student health leaders annually
• Creating school campuses that are safe and supportive
• Connecting students to health resources
• Supporting students so they know that they are not alone
