Being in Touch
One of the greatest things about belonging to Delta Kappa Gamma, is the sense of belonging! Even alone in your home, you can always be in touch with NYSO and International. Both are just a call away. Any time you have a question about ANYTHING, you can call Pi State or International. Don’t know which person to call? Doesn’t matter. These International Administrative Board Members, International Headquarters Professional Staff and NYSO Officers are there for you. CALL ANYONE! If they cannot help you, they will either give you a place to go or will find out the information and get back to you. I have called International about any number of things. Most of the time I have no idea which person to call, so I called a member I met at a NYSO Convention. She has answered my questions, given me a name and email of someone who could help, or has found out the answer for me and gotten back to me. She always makes me feel welcomed and is always glad to help me. Whether you are a chapter officer in need of assistance, a chapter member with a question, or on a State Committee, the NYSO Officers and International
Staff are there FOR YOU! USE THEM! MAKE THEM FEEL NEEDED! REDUCE YOUR STRESS! ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF BELONGING TO DELTA KAPPA GAMMA.

Insurance
Delta Kappa Gamma worked with Boon-Chapman back in 1968 to develop insurance programs to benefit its members. The Insurance Program was adopted that year at the New York Convention. Because insurance plans are adapted to the individual, details of plans, and costs are too varied to be listed here. However, by visiting the Boon-Chapman web site, you can obtain details of these insurance plans.
