Risk Management

WHAT IS RISK MANAGEMENT?

In Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. our Risk Management Program protects our organization, ensures the safety of all participants in our youth programs, evaluates our allocation of resources, and focuses on the enrichment of youth participants.

DELTA SIGMA THETA YOUTH INITIATIVE PROGRAMS

Delta Sigma Theta has three national youth enrichment programs designed to promote the development of young girls and boys. These include, but are not limited to, Delta GEMS, Delta Academy and EMBODI (collectively “youth initiatives”). The Montgomery County (MD) Alumnae Chapter (MCAC) also has reading tutoring, and a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) program.
