What an awesomely amazing day to be an AKA!!
Over 200 of our sisters from across the Commonwealth converged on the State Capitol today for our annual AKA Day at the Capitol! We were "Soaring to Greater Heights of Advocacy"! Alpha Beta Chi Omega Chapter was honored to co-host this amazing event with our sisters of Epsilon Sigma Omega Chapter
The day was made doubly wonderful with the attendance of both Regional Directors that represent PA chapters... AKA North Atlantic Region Elicia Pegues Spearman, Esq. and AKA Great Lakes Region Gwendolyn L. Kirtley, and our International Connection and Social Action Chairman, Beverly A. Fields, Esq.!
We were welcomed to the Capitol on the House Floor by the Honorable Rep. Joanna McClinton, Speaker of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and on the Senate Floor.
We met with our respective state representatives to discuss support for solutions to the issues that impact our communities across the Commonwealth. We heard powerful remarks from distinguished panelists on Black Maternal Health and Teen Su***de Prevention!
What a powerful day of sisterhood, impact and social action!
