Chapter History:
Tau Psi Zeta Chapter was chartered on September 19, 2004 by 20 women who sought to create an atmosphere where the personal goal of a lifetime commitment to Zeta could be achieved. Diversity is important to the chapter, in order to accurately reflect a broad range of backgrounds and interests that the Sorority is composed of. This multi-faceted, growing membership of professional women of color in the Chicagoland and South Suburban areas is TPZ’s greatest asset. Since its inception, the Chapter has increased its membership by more than 50%.
Mission Statement:
Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., Tau Psi Zeta Chapter seeks to provide leadership skills that will enhance the abilities of its members to promote civic work in the community and build a foundation upon which a national organization can thrive.
 
Chapter Meetings:
Tau Psi Zeta Chapter meetings are held the 1st Saturday of every month at St. Ailbe Church Hall, 9015 S. Harper Ave., Chicago, IL 60619 from 11am to 1pm. All Sorors are welcome to attend!
