Implemented across the United States and in select international countries, Z-HOPE focuses its collective Zeta service efforts on increasing awareness and prevention to either decrease occurrences or minimize the impact of said inequalities. Zeta chapters and their affiliate groups are encouraged to collaborate with existing community organizations and resources to ensure access to optimal quality programs that provide maximum impact for the purpose of empowering people to become active partners in improving the quality of their own lives. Zetas in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania have answered this call, supporting various national initiatives such as Prematurity Awareness and Making Strides Against Breast Cancer, and continue to look for more opportunities to expand its reach across the Keystone State. ​

For more information on the program or how you or your organization can get involved, please contact the Pennsylvania State Z-HOPE Coordinators at [email protected]
