Gamma is a peer health education group composed of Greek students on the University of Alabama campus. Gamma is housed out of the Department of Health Promotion and Wellness. The purpose of GAMMA is to provide health information and targeted programming aimed at increasing health knowledge and promoting healthy decision making to members of Greek Organizations.

Gamma has six strategic teams based on the needs of the Greek community. The teams include:
