Amicae
Amicae (Friends of Zeta) are women who may not meet the qualifications necessary to join the sorority or are women in the community (or sisters or friends of Zetas) who have the willingness to function as a part of the sorority.
As early as 1940, graduate chapters of Zeta Phi Beta began to realize the importance of the prestige, good will and cooperation of women who, for various reasons, were not members of any Greek-letter organization. Under the administration of Soror Lullelia Harrison, the first Amicae chapter was organized in Omaha, Nebraska in 1947 making Zeta the first sorority in the National Pan-Hellenic Council to organize an auxiliary group. Zeta Amicae are affiliated through local chapters.
Youth Auxiliaries
The mission of the ZYA (Zeta Youth Auxiliaries) of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Incorporated is to help youth grow culturally, socially and educationally by providing a carefully designed program of activities, aimed to enhance the mind, body, and spirit as they work within their various communities to help others.
Our award-winning program is for girls from 4 to 18. We mentor them to become outstanding leaders in their community, encourage and provide opportunities for them to demonstrate their leadership in service to the community, and instill in them the ideals of scholarship, sisterhood, and community service.
