Our Mission
"To promote unity, scholarship, and service among the Divine Nine organizations of the San Francisco Bay Area."

We champion a shared commitment to community service, academic excellence, civic engagement, and the advancement of African American life throughout our region.
For decades, the SF NPHC has convened member chapters, strengthened cross-organization collaboration, and connected our community with resources, leadership, and opportunity.
