Our leadership initiatives are designed to inspire growth and strengthen our Sisterhood, most notably through Firesides Leadership Training and the Nancy Walton Laurie Leadership Institute of Chi Omega. Firesides Leadership Training is the Fraternity’s annual leadership conference designed to equip chapter officers with practical tools and strategies to excel in their individual roles while improving the membership experience within their chapter and our Fraternity.The Nancy Walton Laurie Leadership Institute is a distinguished program that provides leadership training and education for women to foster personal growth and to prepare them to serve the world. inclusion and belongingInclusion and BelongingOur Sisterhood goes far beyond policy and procedures; we encourage genuine relationships and meaningful support as well. From the moment a woman joins Chi Omega, she is enveloped with open arms, and that community lasts throughout college and well beyond.During weekly chapter meetings, Sisters engage in small group discussions that foster authentic connections while addressing topics and challenges relevant to today’s collegiate women. We are also deeply committed to the well-being and inclusion of every member. Chi Omega provides each member access to mental health resources and each chapter has a Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging Chair, who ensures women feel safe, supported, and truly at home within Chi Omega.What is the return on investment for sorority life now?Sorority membership provides an opportunity for members to reach their fullest potentials and gain access to a supportive network of women that will help them grow far beyond their college days.
