Founded more than a decade ago, The African American Wellness Project (AAWP) was organized to respond to inequities in the health care delivery system. African Americans suffer from health conditions at a disproportionately higher rate and need to know how to organize their health care delivery options in a way that allows them to best utilize health care services.
At AAWP, we believe that health disparities will continue to exist if we donât take action. We provide the resources, information and tools that you need to get the best quality healthcare possible regardless of insurance or circumstance and serve as an advocate to ensure the best health and health care possible. AAWP is a "good prescriptionâ for Black America.
