The Mid-Atlantic region is one of ten regions that collectively form Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated; the nation's first black Greek letter sorority. This region covers the east coast states of NC and VA and has produced two international presidents, a second international vice-president, an international secretary, three international parliamentarians, two international treasurers, an Ivy Leaf editor-in-chief and a plethora of international committee representatives.

Since 1953, chapters within the region have been the ultimate stewards of community service within their local communities. From the oldest chapter in the region (Delta Omega, Petersburg, VA), to the newest chapter (Psi Rho Omega, Loudoun County, VA); the more than 6,000 women who make their home in this region continue to be supreme in service to all mankind.


Alpha Kappa Alpha Mourns the Passing of a Beloved Leader
Mary Shy Scott served as the sorority’s 23rd international president from 1990-1994. The theme of her administration was Creative Strategies for Action: Addressing the Crisis of the 1990’s.

She was truly a treasure whose body of work, life narrative and documented successes serve as an ever-lasting inspiration. While Alpha Kappa Alpha mourns her loss, we also celebrate her life, which was filled with historic achievements.

She is survived by her husband of over 60 years, Alfred, Sr., daughter Alfredene
Scott Benton, a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority and two sons, Arthur and
Alfred Jr. -- press release excerpt (read full press release).
