History of Project Alpha
The March of Dimes and Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity,
Inc. began collaboratively implementing Project Alpha
in 1980. Designed to provide young men with current
and accurate information about teen pregnancy prevention,
Project Alpha consists of a series of workshops and
informational sessions conducted by Alpha Phi Alpha
Fraternity brothers.
The three goals of Project Alpha programs are:
• Sharing Knowledge by combating ignorance and fear with
factual information.
• Changing Attitudes by providing motivation toward positive
changes in sexual behavior.
• Providing Skills by creating a sense of empowerment
and self-esteem.
In 2007 &
2008, the South Carolina District has coordinated
a state-wide effort on last
Saturday in January. During this day, Fraternity chapters
all across the country are requested to work with their
local March of Dimes to implement Project Alpha programs.
Since then, Project Alpha Week, the program has continued
to reach thousands of young men across the country.
