Meet Your New Chapter Consultants

Each year, a wonderful group of volunteers represent Sigma Alpha Sorority at the regional level. These Chapter Consultants support, mentor and guide chapter officers in the performance of their duties to create successful operations of the collegiate chapters. Join us in honoring our outgoing Chapter Consultants and welcoming the new and returning Chapter Consultants!
