In an effort to educate myself on our newest honor, I did a little research. Apparently, there are 2 types of NGO status, NGOs associate with DPI (Department of Public Information) and NGOs with consultative status with ECOSOC (Economic and Social Council). You can have one, the other, or both. My Sister-Sorors of AKA and Zeta are NGOc with DPI, while Delta is NGO consultative status with ECOSOC. If you go here:
