The Hepatitis Education Project (HEP) is a Seattle-based nonprofit organization focused on improving health outcomes for underserved and marginalized communities affected by viral hepatitis. Established in 1993, the organization offers programs in prevention and outreach, medical case management, correctional health, and policy and advocacy, aiming to provide low-barrier, high-quality care to populations such as people experiencing homelessness, uninsured or underinsured individuals, people who use drugs, incarcerated or formerly incarcerated persons, and immigrant and refugee communities. HEP also operates the National Viral Hepatitis Roundtable and the National Hepatitis Corrections Network, expanding its reach beyond its immediate community. While positioned within the hospitals and health care sector, the organization emphasizes social justice and harm reduction in its approach to reducing the health and infectious disease risks associated with viral hepatitis. The recent activity section notes HEP’s involvement in hosting or supporting the HEP-DART 2025 meetings, reflecting its role in convening stakeholders and disseminating relevant research in the field.
