Our Why
The primary purpose and focus of the NPHC member organizations remains community awareness and action through educational, economic, and cultural service activities. Greek membership goes beyond your collegiate experience. To this end, the NPHC promotes the well-being of its affiliate fraternities and sororities, facilitates the establishment and development of local councils of the NPHC and provides leadership training for its constituents.
​

The individual member is expected to align with a graduate/alumni chapter, following graduation from college, with the expectation that he/she will attend regular chapter meetings, regional conferences and national conventions, and take an active part in matters concerning and affecting the community in which he or she lives.
