Initiative 2: Empower our Families
Alpha Kappa Alpha 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 (AKA CHIPPTM)
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, aniety, 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 workshope to support senior memers as they navigate senior life priorities.
