NATIONAL SERVICE PROGRAMS

	The major programs of our Sorority are based upon our organization's Five-Point Thrust: Since its establishment, Delta Sigma Theta has clearly established itself as a public service organization that strives to confront the problems of African Americans and, hence, all Americans. A wide range of programs addressing education, health, international development, and strengthening of the African American family have emerged and evolved over the years.
