ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
As a public service organization, the Bloomington-Normal Alumnae chapter members are dedicated to volunteering in the community that we serve. Since its beginning, our members have been actively involved in various community programs to aid in Economic Development throughout the community.
National economic trends, such as unstable employment, the threat to Social Security as we know it, and the widening gap between wealth and poverty are the bases for the development of Financial Fortitude, the current Economic Development Program Initiative of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Financial Fortitude is a process that will help program participants to set and define goals, develop a plan to achieve them, and to put the plan into action. The process serves as a blueprint to address all aspects of personal finances.

On March 20, 1982, area Sorors met in Hovey Hall at Illinois State University to discuss the establishment of an alumnae chapter. With a clear vision in the hearts and minds of 12 women, the Bloomington-Normal Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. was chartered on March 27, 1983, by Soror Alison Harmon, Midwest Regional Director.
