About the NPHC Chicago

The NPHC Chicago is the Chicago chapter of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, a collaborative organization of the 9 major Black Greek Lettered Fraternities & Sororities. It is a Graduate council and is the largest in the NPHC's North Central Region, with representatives from over 40 chapters in the Chicagoland area.

Vision Statement
The National Pan-Hellenic Council of Chicago, Inc maximizes the collective local resources of the affiliate organizations of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, Inc. to be an advocate for community-based issues, a resource to unify the community, and a professional networking base for all NPHC affiliate organization members in the Chicago area.

Mission Statement
Community being the central focus of the National Pan-Hellenic Council of Chicago, Inc, we promote programs and initiatives to improve the African- American conditions from an academic, economic, health, social and civic perspective. Through partnerships with other community-based organizations, as well as those relationships established among member-chapters, the NPHC-C encourages member chapters to be leaders in the community through service, education, brotherhood and sisterhood.

The 2007 Goals of the NPHC-C are as follows:

Increase active percentage of all known chapters in the Chicago Area

Increase visibility and involvement of NPHC-C among external community ("non-greek"; professional, community-based, health and academic organizations)

Increase number of students transitioning from junior college to 4-year institutions

Foster an environment that engages chapter presidents, educates their delegations, and informs the general membership of the affiliate NPHC organizations

Provide professional and/or personal development opportunities for NPHC-C membership

The NPHC Chicago meets on the first Sunday of each month, except July and August, at the Church of the Good Shepherd, 5700 South Prairie Avenue at 3:00 p.m.
