VOTER REGISTRATION
BAHA aims to ensure everyone who wants to cast a ballot doesn’t miss the opportunity due to lack of registration.

VOTER DEPUTY REGISTRAR TRAINING
Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., is a non-partisan organization but believes very strongly in full participation of the political process. BAHA encourages its members to become deputized and the Social Action committee has registered hundreds of voters and provides citizens with critical information about eligibility, polling locations, and early voting.
POLICING: BRIDGING THE GAP THROUGH COMMUNITY OUTREACH
The Social Action committee also takes an active interest in smaller political arenas such as city council and school boards. Members also participate in local civic observances, memorials, and press conferences.
