Supporting Survivors of Domestic Violence

Alpha Chi Omega's history is rooted in generosity, compassion and commitment to our sisters and the greater good. In support of our national altruism, Alpha Chi Omega members are dedicated to raising awareness and educating others about domestic violence. 

The 1992 Alpha Chi Omega National Convention marked the adoption of domestic violence awareness (DVA), an issue that affects people – and primarily women – all over the world, as our national philanthropy. Together, we work to fight against unhealthy relationships and build healthy relationships. Members serve individuals and families impacted by domestic violence through fundraising and sharing gifts of time and talent with shelters and other service-providing organizations. Alpha Chi Omega also works to empower its own members, giving them tools to build their own healthy relationships, and to raise awareness of domestic violence by educating others on its impact and work being done to end it. 

As champions of change, our leadership around this issue is creating lasting impact in our local communities and the world. You can learn more about Alpha Chi Omega’s commitment to ending domestic violence by exploring the resources, programs and partnerships available to our members here.
