Physical & Mental HealthConcerns about America’s physical and mental health have not escaped Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Delta’s work in prevention and wellness translates to health education programs, health fairs, and the provision of health care services. Delta also supports medical research that examines illnesses that victimize specific segments of the country’s population. As an organization of predominantly Black women, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. is uniquely positioned to impact not only the well-being of its membership, but also the families and communities we serve.
The service area of the Los Angeles Alumnae Chapter is uniquely plagued by food desert surroundings (fast food restaurants) with rising health disparities such as high blood pressure, hypertension, obesity and a myriad of other health and physical impairments. We work directly within our service planning area to impact families and students to bring creative programming to surrounding underserved communities.
