Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Alpha Delta Pi is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive sisterhood that celebrates the identities and lived experiences of our members. We want to ensure we are truly embodying our motto, We Live For Each Other, in our words and actions.

On June 3, 2020, Grand Council shared the sorority’s 2020 Strategic Plan for the biennium which includes the prioritization of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Developed over the course of the last few months, this new plan identifies inclusivity as one of the core values of our organization. 

As the first secret society for college women, Alpha Delta Pi has existed for over 169 years. While we have a long history and legacy, we recognize our responsibility to acknowledge our contributions to the racist and oppressive systems still in existence today. We are long overdue in taking responsibility to be better for all of our members, especially Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC), and other marginalized identity groups.

DEI Philanthropy

Iota Gamma has hosted 2 fundraising philanthropy events for The Loveland Foundation. The Loveland Foundation brings opportunity and healing to communities of color, especially to Black women and girls by providing funding for therapy. Here are a couple of additional small excerpts from The Loveland Foundation website: 

 

“Loveland Foundation is committed to showing up for communities of color in unique and powerful ways, with a particular focus on Black women and girls. Our resources and initiatives are collaborative and they prioritize opportunity, access, validation, and healing. We are becoming the ones we’ve been waiting for.”

 

“The Loveland Foundation is the official continuation of this effort to bring opportunity and healing to communities of color, and especially to Black women and girls. Through fellowships, residency programs, listening tours, and more, ultimately we hope to contribute to both the empowerment and the liberation of the communities we serve”
