Service to all mankind includes encouraging civic responsibility and active participation in the democratic process.

Voting is both a right and a responsibility. Let’s do our part by participating in today’s election and encouraging others to do the same.

Congratulations to Phi Iota Omega Chapter member Chandra Sparks Splond who was awarded the Distinguised Alumnus Award by the The Malone Society of the University of Alabama National Alumni Association. We are so proud of you and keep SOARing to greater heights!

Wishing all of our June Chapter Members a very happy and joyous birthday this month. Enjoy your day to the fullest!

“Pretty Wicked” was more than just a workshop — it was a meaningful conversation about mental health, body image, self-perception, and the impact of the world around us. 💚💗

Yesterday’s session was engaging, interactive, and filled with honest dialogue as we explored how to reframe negative thinking, challenge unrealistic standards, and encourage healthier ways of seeing ourselves and others. From personal reflection to conversations about family, friendships, and community influence, we shared practical ways to help change the narrative surrounding body image and mental wellness.

Workshops like this are important because they create safe spaces for learning, healing, and growth — reminding us that our worth is not defined by society’s expectations.

Thank you to everyone who attended, participated, and contributed to such a thoughtful and impactful experience. 💚✨

May 2026 is Mental Health Awareness Month, and mental health is a serious matter!
Phi Iota Omega Chapter members will be “Seen in Green” throughout the month, as green represents the color of awareness. Join us as we strive to eradicate the stigma of seeking mental health services in our communities by increasing awareness and education.

May Chapter Meeting Recap 🩷💚

Our May chapter meeting was filled with celebration, inspiration, sisterhood, and purpose.

In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, we were honored to spotlight two phenomenal chapter members who are making an impact through entrepreneurship and mental wellness services within our community. Their passion, leadership, and commitment to helping others truly inspired us all.

We also proudly spotlighted one of our YLI scholars who is flourishing as a young entrepreneur, reminding us of the importance of empowering and encouraging the next generation of leaders.

In addition, we celebrated our newest Silver and Golden chapter members, honoring their years of dedicated service, sisterhood, and excellence. Their legacy continues to light the way for future generations.

Members also engaged in a Sisterly Relations activity that brought laughter, connection, and joyful energy, reminding us of the beauty of sisterhood, fellowship, and legacy.
