Help Us Create a Safe and Enjoyable Fraternity Experience.

Studies show that parents continue to positively influence their children well past college, so we believe that talking openly about these issues and checking in on your student throughout the school year is imperative. Lambda Chi Alpha provides training and works with chapter leaders to encourage brother-to-brother conversations about the obligations and expectations of membership. The following resources are available to your student, and for you to use in guiding these conversations. 

Alcohol Handbook
Dr. Rob Turrisi of Pennsylvania State University developed a resource by compiling information from parents, students, and the scientific community about how to talk to college students about alcohol.
ULifeLine
Lambda Chi Alpha's partnership with the Jed Foundation provides our members, and their loved ones access to mental health support resources. Ask your student if his chapter has a "You Can Help a Friend" program.
Help My Friend Program
If your student is worried that a friend is struggling emotionally, use these JED tips and tools to help them recognize a problem, start a conversation, and follow through with support. If this program isn't currently at their chapter, they can request it!
Chapter Support Team
Lambda Chi Alpha's Chapter Support & Wellness team is here to support your student and their chapter members. They are your first point of contact for questions related to the health and safety of our men. Click the button below to contact the Director of Chapter Support & Wellness, Jessica Ashton.

Philanthropy: Feeding America
Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity has partnered with Feeding America to support their vision of an America where no one is hungry. Our members are encouraged to host philanthropy events, volunteer at their local food bank and advocate for this cause. Since our partnership began, we have provided more than 15 million meals hungry families through Feeding America.
Philanthropy: Movember
Lambda Chi Alpha has partnered with the Movember Foundation, the leading charity dedicated to changing the face of men’s health. During the month of November, our chapters are encouraged to create teams and raise funds through moustache competitions, exercise challenges, and events to raise vital funds for Movember and awareness for men’s health.
Philanthropy: Red Cross
Lambda Chi Alpha has partnered with the American Red Cross. Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs lifesaving blood, and through this partnership, our chapters are encouraged to host Red Cross blood drives on their campuses.

Celebrating 50 Years of Being the First to Abolish Pledging.

In 1972, the term “Associate Member” replaced the term “Pledge” when referring to a new member of Lambda Chi Alpha. Associate membership allowed new members voting rights in chapter matters and the ability to run for officer positions, unlike other fraternities at the time. We then became the first fraternity to abolish pledging to promote an anti-hazing culture in its chapters.
