  • Louisiana Lagniappe

    Tri Sigma With the help of a matching RPM Grant from the Tri Sigma Foundation, the Alpha Mu Chapter brought 'a little something extra' to young patients at Our Lady of Lourdes Women’s & Children’s Hospital In the heart of Louisiana, a place of hope and healing now boasts an enchanting addition that is already bringing smiles and joy to the faces of the youngest patients at Our Lady of Lourdes Women’s & Children’s Hospital in Lafayette. The recently updated Child Life Playroom is the latest testament to the impact of the Robbie Page Memorial Fund. A partnership between the Our Lady of Lourdes Foundation and the Alpha Mu Chapter at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, plus a matching grant through the Tri Sigma Foundation made the playroom possible. A dedication ceremony for the 300-square-foot space was held in April. The playroom provides a special place for pediatric and PICU patients to participate in therapeutic play, a small oasis of fun and normalcy amidst an often-stressful medical setting. “There is such a healing modality to providing children the opportunity to do things they would be doing at home that they are unable to do while they are in the hospital,” said Laurel Blanchard, Certified Child Life Specialist. “Being able to have this space allows that.” With its vibrant colors and an abundance of toys and games, this space has become a beacon of happiness for the hospital's tiniest patients. It's not just about fun and games; it's a vital component of the healing process. Research shows child life therapy significantly improves the well-being of pediatric patients. According to a study published in Medical News Today, child life interventions reduce anxiety levels in hospitalized children by more than 70 percent. The Alpha Mu Chapter raised funds through their annual chili cook-off, one of the largest annual philanthropic events hosted by a Tri Sigma collegiate chapter. "Our annual chili cook-off has been enjoyed by our community for officially a decade. Our members always enjoy seeing how much our sponsors, teams, and attendees enjoy this event," said Alpha Mu Philanthropy Chair Ashley Graffeo. "Our members take so much pride in knowing our hard work supports causes greater than ourselves." The Tri Sigma Foundation awards grants to local therapeutic play programs nominated by individual members, as well as collegiate and alumnae chapters. Play therapy helps children cope with difficult emotions and experiences. It can also help children feel more comfortable during medical procedures, like getting a shot or having blood drawn. By teaching them relaxation techniques and distracting them with play, they can feel less pain and fear. Since the establishment of the Robbie Page Memorial Fund in 1954, Tri Sigmas have contributed more than $2 million in grants to support our philanthropic initiative Sigma Serves Children. Each year, the Foundation awards local grants to programs nominated by individual Tri Sigmas or alumnae/collegiate chapters. Grants up to $5,000 may be awarded to hospitals and clinics for items such tablets, virtual reality headsets, sensory boxes, books, and interactive play tables.

  • Culture of Caring | Tri Sigma Sorority

    Tri Sigma is dedicated to fostering a safe, supportive environment. Our commitment to harm reduction empowers members to make responsible choices and look out for one another. Culture of Caring Tri Sigma is dedicated to fostering a safe, supportive environment. Our commitment to harm reduction empowers members to make responsible choices and look out for one another. Harm Reduction Tri Sigma is committed to preventing high-risk behavior and takes a health promotion approach when educating students and advisors. The national organization upholds the following philosophy toward harm reduction: The sorority urges all members to practice the principles of personal dignity, self-discipline, and dedication to social standards worthy of Tri Sigma. Through education, training, and mature adult guidance, we provide the tools to help students make responsible healthy choices and to understand the consequences of their choices. The organization will hold chapters and individual chapter members accountable for the choices they make. The sorority expects personal responsibility from its members and accountability through local chapter procedures. Harm reduction is less about policies and more about taking care of one another, creating a culture of care, and caring enough to confront another member if they demonstrate harmful unhealthy behaviors. This program has been recognized with the CPN Seal of Prevention, an honor awarded to institutions of higher education and fraternity/sorority organizations that have demonstrated leadership in digital prevention programming focused on student safety, well-being, and inclusion. To help members recognize these harmful behaviors and to provide outlets for reporting, the following health promotion education is provided to Tri Sigma collegiate members. Prevention This multi-module health promotion program is grounded in Tri Sigma’s Member Development framework and core values. The program focuses on: Alcohol and the body – Alcohol use, how it impacts the body, and ways that individuals can make smarter and healthier choices regarding alcohol consumption. Anti-hazing – Tri Sigma’s definition of hazing, the nuances of hazing, and how members can recognize and respond to hazing behaviors within Tri Sigma. Cannabis – An in-depth lesson on cannabis use—including the different chemicals at play and how they interact with the body—and legal, regulatory, and policy considerations. Responding to sexual and relationship violence – An introduction to these concepts with a focus on empathy and understanding, practicing survivor support skills, trauma–informed approaches that may influence individual responses, and resources available through Tri Sigma to help members take action. Prescription and other drugs – Information on social norms information, the primary, secondary, and long-term effects of use, and strategies to respond to concerning behaviors. Mental Wellbeing This program provides an introduction to mental health topics, including: How mental health and wellbeing can influence one’s collegiate experience Tools to support personal wellbeing This module will place added emphasis on trust building, vulnerability, and protective factors associated with personal and collective wellbeing. Reducing High-Risk Behaviors In-person experiential programming is provided to student leaders and collegiate chapters. Click on each program name to learn more about our offerings. Prevention Institute The Prevention Institute is an in-person program focused on helping students develop the skills needed to create their own local prevention plan, including chapter retreats to proactively prevent high-risk behaviors within their chapter. This program won the 2020 AFA/CoHEASAP Award for Outstanding Alcohol/Other Drug Prevention Program. Winning programs must demonstrate creativity and overall effectiveness in alcohol/other drug abuse awareness and education or leadership that supports the elimination of high-risk drinking behavior. Prevention Education Debrief Guides Collegiate chapters receive ongoing education to help reinforce concepts introduced to new members. Members complete the e-learning content individually, and National Headquarters provides chapters with debrief guides to dive deeper into the content and apply the lessons to their daily lives. Sigmas Striving for Safety In addition to facilitating the Prevention Institute, SAFE Team volunteers assist assigned chapters with a harm reduction program for all chapter members. The goal is for each chapter to receive a proactive visit each triennium. The half-day program focuses on engaging all members in being harm reductionists, building communication and conflict resolution skills, and identifying and confronting high-risk behaviors in their community. STRIDES Program Collegiate chapters that violate the National Policies of Sigma Sigma Sigma are placed on a 4-step Chapter Supervision Program. If a chapter struggles to follow sorority or university policies, a 3-day STRIDES program (Sigma Training on Risk – Intervention, Member Development, and Chapter Evaluation for Success) is hosted by the SAFE Team and utilizes Appreciative Inquiry to guide the chapter through their challenges to create positive change. Tri Sigma won the Association of Fraternity/Sorority Advisors (AFA) Oustanding Change Initiative Award in 2020 for our work on the STRIDES program. This award recognizes major initiatives or long-term plans that have led to positive changes within the campus fraternity and sorority community or the inter/national organization and measured improvements, results, and positive outcomes. Taking Action Tri Sigma is proud to participate in National Hazing Prevention Week and sponsor the Anti-Hazing Hotline—an anonymous, toll-free number anyone can call to report hazing. We encourage all sisters, new members, parents, etc. to call (888) 668-4293 if you have any concerns about hazing on your campus. To report a chapter concern, complete this online form . It is our standard practice to keep those who report concerns anonymous; however, it is helpful to know the submitter’s name and email for any follow-up questions.

Support for Sigma Serves Children initiatives is driven by chapter fundraisers and individual donations. $41,898 in Robbie Page Memorial Grants to 9 organizations in 2023-2024 Child Life Program at Endeavor Health Evanston Hospital uses play intervention to support young patients. Under the guidance of Certified Child Life Specialist Katelyn R. Beyer, the Child Life Program at Endeavor Health (formerly NorthShore HeathSystem) has creates a nurturing environment for over 2,000 young patients annually, assisting them in navigating the complex landscape of medical conditions, trauma, and grief through the therapeutic power of play. Robbie Page Memorial Grant funding was used to purchase an array of medical play interventions for children of various ages and developmental stages. Play IV pumps, surgery equipment replicas, and other interactive resources empower children to familiarize themselves with medical equipment and procedures in a safe and controlled environment. This hands-on experience demystifies medical processes and instills a sense of confidence and control, significantly reducing fear and anxiety associated with hospital visits. Children who engage with medical platy interventions exhibit enhanced coping skills, resilience, and a more positive outlook despite their medical circumstances.
