Our regional awards will recognize the best examples of excellence that we can all be proud of and emulate.

This new decade gives us new opportunities to continue making an IMPACT with excellence. “A New Thing” continues while we honor the past, and forge full speed into a new era of service. We welcome you to Richmond with open arms and the sweet spirit of Mid-Atlantic.

I, along with the host chapters of the Mid-Atlantic Region and your Regional Director, Jennifer King Congleton, welcome each of you to your 67th Regional Conference in Richmond, Virginia! As we prepare to experience “Pearls on the James Reflecting Excellence”, we are ecstatic to gather in the name of our beloved sorority. Your active participation has been the core of the success of our second year of Exemplifying Excellence through Sustainable Service in Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® and your overwhelming support of this administration is greatly appreciated. Sorors across the globe have enthusiastically embraced all initiatives, especially HBCU for Life A Call to Action, our Signature Program, #CAPSM, and Women’s Healthcare and Wellness. We continue to nurture our ivy through sisterhood and Service to All Mankind.

The growth of the Marvelous Mid-Atlantic Region has been phenomenal. I am positive that the sorors from over 130 graduate and undergraduate chapters throughout the states of North Carolina and the Commonwealth of Virginia are ready to absorb the information and training that will be provided during this conference. This will undoubtedly ensure a successful 2020 program year in local chapters.

You are encouraged to have a good time and learn important information prepared to advance our great sisterhood.

Attendance is vital in order to stay prepared for leadership when you return to your communities. Through interactive workshops, sisterly relations activities, and sharing best practices, we can grow and become better Alpha Kappa Alpha women. Whether we are Undergraduates or Graduates, we all have a voice and it should be heard. Our visionary founder, Soror Ethel Hedgeman Lyle, would be proud to see just how far we've come after more than 112 years.

The Program committees have spent countless hours to make this one of the best regional conferences ever.

We will highlight Excellence through sisterly relations with programs and activities that will enhance and develop sisterly bonds. Certifications will lead to standards of Excellence in chapter operations; recognition will be given through Excellence in Leadership during breakfast and lunch events; the creation of activities for children and men will reflect our historical ancestry in Richmond while they explore the city; we will honor our precious Jewels; we will promote lifelong learning by recognizing our contributions to EAF; we will honor our commitment to service; we will celebrate our many blessings with an evening of elegance at the gala; and we will end our conference with a Jazz Brunch to soothe the soul.

We’ve decided to do “A New Thing”. The Ivy Beyond the Wall Ceremony will be held on Sunday.

Worship service is open to all registered sorors and registered guests. We will worship together to refresh our spirits and to give us strength to continue to lead with impact and passion.

While you are here in Richmond to create unforgettable sisterly memories, we are confident that your active participation in the conference will strengthen and impact your leadership development within Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated®.
