HealthPair is a nonprofit that aims to provide health literacy and medical advocacy to college students.

It is no question that young adults tend to shy away from interacting with structures that appear too complex to navigate, and the American healthcare system is no exception. Frankly, we can’t blame them. New students are often overwhelmed by the transition to college. They must learn to operate with a higher level of independence while navigating a fresh set of responsibilities that comes with this drastic change. This is where HealthPair comes in!
