Five-Point Programmatic Thrusts
Programs
The Chicago Alumnae Chapter has a rich history of providing award-winning programming aligning with Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.’s Five-Point Programmatic Thrust of Economic Development, Educational Development, International Awareness and Involvement, Physical and Mental Health, and Political Awareness and Involvement.
