CHAPTER HISTORY
On February 28, 1985, several sorors met for the purpose of forming a new chapter. After subsequently meeting, on December 14, 1985 Montgomery County (OH) Alumnae Chapter (MCOAC) was chartered with thirty-nine members. Allison Harmon, Midwest Regional Director, conducted the chartering services.
Upon attainment of the chapter, MCOAC became the 758th chapter in Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. and the 127th chapter in the Midwest region. The first order of business was to reclaim inactive sorors. The chapter also sought to enhance the organization by attracting a diverse group of talented, educated young women.
A dedication to public service remains the thrust of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. In keeping with the goals and mission of the founders of this organization, our chapter has continued establishing projects under the Five Point Programmatic Thrust:
