Chicago, IL-  Alpha Psi Lambda National, Inc. welcomes its newest entity, the Alpha Psi Lambda, University of St. Francis Colony, founded in Joliet, IL  on December 9, 2017. The colony’s establishment marks the second greek lettered organization at the University of St. Francis, and the first Latino-based greek lettered organization.

The Colony’s founding line, El Reino, is made up of:

In 2012, President Barack Obama announced that undocumented minors  who came to the United States as children and meeting specific conditions would be protected against deportation under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. The program allows eligible people to request deferred action for a period of two years (subject to renewal), granting them lawful presence in the United States so they can attend school and apply for employment authorization. Since 2012, nearly 800,000 have received work permits and deportation relief through the DACA program. Many of the DACA recipients risked exposing their unauthorized status by submitting the DACA application and now face the possibility that the information they provided could be used to separate them from their families.

Alpha Psi Lambda National, Inc. unequivocally supports our members and those with DACA status and calls on the President and Congress to act immediately to preserve the protections against deportation for those in the DACA program. Additionally, we encourage our members to:

Seek support and guidance from trusted and knowledgeable advisors. If you have DACA status, you should consult with your immigration lawyer to learn about your options.

Alpha Psi Lambda National, Inc. extends its thoughts to all those who were impacted by Hurricane Harvey and we extend our deepest sympathies to those who have suffered a tragic loss of life.

The state of Texas was in the direct path as Harvey made landfall, with the city of Houston impacted the greatest. Thousands have been displaced and are actively searching for secured shelter. The City of Houston, with support from Mayor Sylvester Turner, wants to remind residents that immigration status will not be a factor in receiving emergency aid and no one will be turned away at shelters.

A message from the National Executive Board of Alpha Psi Lambda National Inc.

Alpha Psi Lambda stands against racism, intolerance, and violence. We condemn the acts of bigotry and hatred displayed by white supremacist groups this past weekend at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. Our thoughts are with the victims and communities impacted by these events. 

The Fraternity's diverse membership supports its core values of inclusion, equity, justice and friendship and is committed to carrying out these values across their university/college campuses and within their communities.
