Welcome to the Sigma Lambda Omega Website!

Picture

Greetings! The Sigma Lambda Omega (SLO) Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated welcomes you to our website. We are proudly affiliated with the Fantastic Far Western Region located in the San Fernando Valley of California.  Since the chartering of our chapter in 1990, we “AKAs of The Valley” have been actively engaged in a number of community outreach services from our sorority’s international program targets to our very own signature programs.

Our programs remain the heart of AKA.  Under the direction of Dr. Glenda B. Glover, our International President, she serves as the driving force behind our sorority’s 2018-2022 international program theme titled “Exemplifying Excellence through Sustainable Service” with emphasis on five program targets.
 
Target 1: HBCU 4 Life: A Call to Action
Target 2: Women’s Healthcare & Wellness
Target 3: Building Your Economic Legacy 
Target 4: The Arts!
Target 5: Global Impact
                       
Even during these unprecedented times, we are still committed in the continuation of our programs by safely operating in a virtual environment.  SLO comprises diverse and talented women dedicated to the mission of promoting unity, while simultaneously being proactive in addressing community challenges in the San Fernando, Santa Clarita and Simi Valleys. We live by our AKA tradition and credo “To be supreme in service to all mankind.”
 
We invite you to browse our website and follow us on Instagram and Facebook in regards to upcoming events, activities, and programs.  We want you to stay connected and get involved!  If you are a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha seeking to reactivate or transfer, new to the area and looking for a chapter home, please arrange a virtual visit with us.  We look forward to including all in our mission towards making a positive impact in our surrounding communities!
 
Putting Purpose, Programs, and Positivity 1st,
