Political Awareness and Involvement
Political Awareness and Involvement is responsible for developing and coordinating community programs designed to enhance political awareness and eradicate social inequities. The Los Angeles Alumnae Chapter’s Political Awareness and Involvement Committee serve as a vehicle for advocacy, social change, and public policy.
Through non-partisan nature and purpose, Delta understands the importance and the need for an informed electorate. Delta’s concern for the public’s “need-to-know” and the enfranchisement of all Americans has been the philosophical basis for public service programs in this area. Voter registration and voter education programs, workshops, and seminars highlighting elected public official assessment and accountability are ongoing. The mission of the Los Angeles Alumnae Chapter is to inform, educate, and register people to vote. The Chapter also works with community partners to cultivate programming and training to educate residents of Los Angeles County on the importance of voting. The Chapter reaches first-time voters through social media and other campaigns encouraging them to get out and vote.
The service area of the Los Angeles Alumnae Chapter is greatly affected by homelessness. To address issues of homelessness in our community, we partner with local non-profit organizations geared to help eradicate homelessness. We also participate in various events and provide services to the homeless community.
