Empower Our Families​

​

Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority has a strong history of supporting and servicing families, for we understand a healthy family is the foundation of a healthy community.

We will take a multi-generational approach to fortify families within our communities by addressing child hunger and promoting positive youth development and leadership, mental well-being, and senior life.

​

Areas of focus

​

Childhood Hunger Initiative Power Pack (CHIPP™)

CHIPP provides weekend and holiday meals for children within local communities and is targeted to be Alpha Kappa Alpha’s most ambitious childhood hunger program to date. 

​

Youth Leadership Institute (YLI)

YLI is a youth-led and highly interactive leadership development program designed to empower and engage youth, ages 11-13.

​

Mental Health Awareness

During Mental Health Awareness month, we will use our collective efforts to fight stigma and raise awareness related to depression, anxiety, and trauma.

​

Our Seniors

Our Seniors focus on ensuring these members can actively participate in all AKA activities. We also will focus on providing educational programs and workshops to support senior members as they navigate senior life priorities.

YLI is a youth-led and highly interactive leadership development program designed to empower and engage youth, ages 11-13.

• Workshops and training that will develop and enhance leadership and social skills
• Reinforcement of self-worth for each participant.
• Topics include goal-setting, community service, environmental awareness, career exploration, and much more.
Our goals include training our youth to lead with knowledge, confidence, and tools of distinction by equipping them with sound principles and values to make good life choices and decisions in their everyday lives.
