Lambda Chi Chapter

The Lambda Chi Chapter of Chi Eta Phi Sorority was organized on November 13, 1965 in Detroit Michigan, at the home of Sarah Campbell Vaughn, with the support of Mamie Garland, National Organizer. It was the 27 th chapter of the organization.

 

Twenty-two dedicated and committed registered nurses began to carry the torch in Detroit, elevating the plane of nursing and striving to improve health care within the African American community.

​

These 22 members will be forever in the history of Lambda Chi as they focused on health promotion and disease prevention, recruitment and retention, mentoring, leadership development and have made many contributions to Lambda Chi.

​

Lambda Chi is very proud to have three active undergraduate chapters. These undergraduate chapters function in conjunction with their undergraduate advisor, who is a liaison between the graduate and undergraduate chapter.  They also conduct their own community service projects, fundraising events, and general membership meetings.  All chapters are registered as official organizations within their affiliated university entities.
