So, you're a good person and you want to improve your chapter - awesome, congratulations!

I know a lot of guys like you, in fact I've been a guy like you, and the biggest mistake good guys on a mission make is in their delivery. A lot of times it's easy to get caught up in your good ideas and forget that you need to translate it to people the right way. Don't be abrasive, don't overwhelm people - take baby steps, don't insult something that they think is right and working and "made" them into good brothers. Like 33girl said, don't demean something that has made a personal impact in their life, just try to translate it into something that is legal and in line with the values of your organization. Finding a program isn't hard, your national organization has given you that, what you need is to gently convince your chapter that it is going to have more successful results than what you're doing now.
