Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. continues to raise community awareness of critical health issues impacting African-American women. Our primary focus areas are heart health & prevention, breast cancer, nutrition & wellness, and care for the caregivers.
Breast Cancer Awareness and Prevention efforts focus specifically on early detection through mammograms to improve the survival rate of women diagnosed with breast cancer. Alpha Kappa Alpha owns a digital AKA Mobile Breast Cancer Screening Unit which travels to various locations and provides mammogram screening. Lambda Chi Omega chapter partners with the Susan G. Koman Foundation, local clinics, rural health centers, and hospitals to emphasize the need for African-American women to receive regular mammograms.
