Both Gamma Sigma Sigma and Omega Phi Alpha were formed at a time when Alpha Phi Omega was limited to Males. GSS was founded in 1952 by a group of 8 women's service groups that had had help finding each other by APO chapters at the APO National Convention. Omega Phi Alpha was founded in 1953 with the direct help from an Alpha Phi Omega chapter on their campus. More information can be found at www.gammasigmasigma.org and www.omegaphialpha.org

On a National level, Alpha Phi Omega does not have any official affiliation with either group.

Right now Alpha Phi Omega has about 320 active chapters, GSS has about 45-50 and Omega Phi Alpha about 15-20...
