Pi Omega Zeta donating diapers to the Williamson County Early Headstart Program joined by News 8 Austin Anchor Soror Erika Riggins during the
74th Southern Region Conference and Youth Retreat held in Round Rock, Texas in June 2003.
Since 1972, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority has enjoyed a partnership with the March of Dimes in an effort to encourage women to seek prenatal care within the first trimester of pregnancy, thereby increasing the prevention of birth defects and infant mortality. Nationwide, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. sponsors over 150 Stork's Nests. Last year, The Stork's Nest program served over 15,000 women.
The Stork's Nest Program is designed to promote prenatal care participation and healthy behaviors during the pregnancy through two components - incentives and education. Stork's Nest clients "earn" points toward incentives, such as maternity or baby care items, through a variety of positive, health-promoting activities such as attending prenatal care appointments, participating in prenatal education classes, keeping appointments for well-baby visits. The Stork's Nest prenatal education sessions provide information, educational materials, and a variety of other resources and referrals that help clients take good care of themselves and their babies.
In 1997, Zeta celebrated its 25th anniversary of collaboration with the March of Dimes. The program was updated to include a new national logo, new educational materials and new incentive items for those mothers participating in the program. Pi Omega Zeta has worked closely with the Central Texas March of Dimes to bring a Stork's Nest to Williamson County, Texas. We have also participated in the Walk America Campaigns. We look to provide this service to the community and we value our wonderful partnership with the March of Dimes.
