I googled Model Un, and the first result that popped up was the UNA USA website, which has a huge part dedicated to helping kids start Model UN clubs.

Model UN is pretty easy to start as well. I know that there are quite a few high school Model UN clubs in Nor Cal, so you aren't alone in starting one.

However, it looks like you're undergoing a lot of stress right now, so you should think twice about starting Model UN. Being founder (and I assume you want to be president) of an organization like MUN requires a lot of time commitment and patience--especially since it will be a new club. I was one of the co-founders of my school's Model UN, and it definitely takes a while to get a new club up and running in terms of members, guidelines, etc.

Also, back when I did the club, one of our biggest problems was chaperones. Our advisor couldn't chaperone/didn't want to for our conferences, so you'll have to figure that out as well.

Good luck!
