What's the VIP Program?

The Be in the Know VIP Program offers you the opportunity to push yourself beyond the basic campaign design and maximum incentives. VIP stands for "Very Impressive Participant."

By earning 9,000 campaign points, you will be named a Be in the Know VIP for the 2025–2026 campaign year! 

What's in it for You?

Besides Be in the Know bragging rights, all confirmed VIPs will earn special recognition. You’ll also complete additional activities to earn points this campaign year and take extra steps to positively impact your health (the true reward)! 

Become a Be in the Know VIP

If you earn 9,000 campaign points this year, you’ll be named a Be in the Know VIP.
