Upon untiring and relentless efforts to locate
an appropriate as well as resourceful facility in the community, after several
long months of negotiating, Dr. Alice Hinsley, our President proudly informed us
that Stork's Nest was about to be reopened again. Epsilon Zeta Chapter, celebrated the re-opening of the Stork's
Nest in June, 2016. The ceremony took place at the Fulton County
Adamsville Health Center expanding the prenatal program within the Atlanta
area.
The Stork's Nest Coordinator, Soror Kathryn
Hargro assisted by Felicia Mebane and steering committee of Epsilon Zeta
Chapter are on the move! Successive Prenatal Education Sessions for the
Stork's Nest sponsored by Epsilon Zeta have been since the beginning of
the new sorority year 2016 at the Regional Health Center. Additionally, medical
staff at Adamsville Health Center supported us by recommending clients,
teaching classes, and facilitating a modern/spacious classroom for our sessions
in addition to housing our Nest.
Epsilon Zeta received positive feedback from our
ten graduates and volunteer teachers. Thanks to the Center and Epsilon
Zeta Chapter for a successful program.
The Stork's Nest Program was created by Soror
Evelyn Brown, Epsilon Zeta Chapter and in 1972 the National Sorority officially
adopted the project.
