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.
