Sigma Lambda Gamma National Sorority Inc. is, as I have said before, a Historically Latina Sorority with Multicultural Membership. I have explained this in my own words, but I would like to quote here what the National Organization as a whole has to say about this:
SLG
Our Guiding Mission & Vision Statement

Mission Statement

Sigma Lambda Gamma strives to be the premier organization committed to providing a mechanism of empowerment to all women.

Through a network of close to 3,000 multicultural sisters from collegiate chapters and alumnae associations located across the United States, we promote academic excellence and higher education for all women via a dedication and incorporation of the sorority principles – Academics, Community Service, Cultural Awareness, Morals & Ethics, and Social Interaction – in our lives.

Vision Statement

Recognizing our responsibility to the progression of a positive global community, we stress the importance of morals, ethics, and education in our daily lives so that we serve the needs of our neighbors through a mutual respect and understanding of our varying cultures.


These statements are intended to make clear the path that our growth and programming is to take into the future. The programming offered by Sigma Lambda Gamma should be multicultural in aspect if only to fulfill our vision statement, if not, and this should be the real purpose, to fulfill each member's personal values and desires for the growth and education of every woman, something we all should hold dear to us.

I have, in the past, been questioned about the focus of my sorority, and why we bother with multicultural programming when we are clearly a Latina organization (something abundantly evident on my campus), and what I said then is just as true today: Regardless of the race, ethnicity, creed, culture, nationality, or any other difference in women, Sigma Lambda Gamma is here to serve for the advancement and education of every woman, everywhere.
