The Hope in Practice (HIP) program is an afterschool initiative designed to inspire and support students by combining inspirational videos from influential figures with a curriculum focused on finding purpose, making meaning, and building support networks.
The program includes individual assessments, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) diagnosis and treatment through needle-free acupuncture, and a movement and meditation regimen tailored to each student’s needs. Trauma-informed care and vulnerable sharing sessions with trained facilitators help students establish a sustainable support structure.
Additionally, students receive education on the effects of substances on the brain and training on preventing opioid overdoses.
