CAREER CHOICES

This newspaper clipping highlights the North Jersey Alumnae Chapter’s ongoing commitment to preparing young people for future success by offering practical guidance on education and career pathways. The article describes a special program focused on presenting diverse career choices to youth, including opportunities in aviation, financial aid preparation, and college applications. Through partnerships with organizations such as the Council for Minority Airport Opportunities and Direct Search for Talent, the chapter helped connect students with industry professionals, recruiters, and specialized workshops designed to expand their understanding of available career options.


The article also emphasizes Delta Sigma Theta’s role in supporting academic readiness. It notes workshops on financial aid—covering topics like “What You Need to Know” and “How to Apply for College”—as well as follow-up sessions related to SAT preparation. These efforts reflect the chapter’s dedication to Educational Development, a key component of the Sorority’s Five-Point Programmatic Thrust, and demonstrate NJAC’s focus on offering tangible, skill-building opportunities that help young people navigate both college admissions and early career decision-making. The clipping serves as a testament to the chapter’s long-standing commitment to empowering youth through information, mentorship, and access to meaningful opportunities.
