Membership Benefits

Stay Connected with Sigma

All chapter leaders should look for Leader Lines in their inbox on the first Friday of every month. This is Sigma’s newsletter just for chapter leaders, and includes important announcements, training opportunities, and updates. This is the primary way Sigma uses to communicate with chapter leaders, and the content is dynamic, meaning each chapter leader will only see news relevant to their role. Be sure to read each and every month so your chapter stays informed! 

Each Sigma chapter is also assigned a specialist at headquarters to assist with chapter operations questions. If you’d like to get in touch with your chapter specialist, please email chapserv@sigmanursing.org.
