African American Reach and Teach Health Ministry (AARTH) is a  nonprofit organization, established to respond to HIV/AIDS and other major health issues affecting people of African descent.  Over 20 years ago, Mary Diggs Hobson and her son Reginald Diggs, who has since passed, founded AARTH with this mission in mind.   

​

AARTH remains steadfast in our efforts to address racial inequities in systems, policies, and culture and that mission will never waiver. AARTH has a broad scope of educational practices to influence health equity with an emphasis on.  AARTH engages the Black community and our allies with programs that address: chronic disease self-management, mental health, senior health, and HIV/AIDS.
