What is the SH101 High School Student Advisory Board internship?
- Student Health 101 is a monthly online health and wellness publication distributed to high schools across the US. Each issue is customized for our client schools with their own logos and school resources.
- All students on our board have a strong interest in health and wellness, especially issues affecting the high school population.
