About Us
Chi Eta Phi Sorority, Incorporated is a professional
organization composed of registered nurses and
nursing students. On October 16, 1932, Ailene C.
Ewell, with the assistance of 11 other courageous
registered nurses organized the charter chapter of
Freedman’s Hospital in Washington, D.C. These 12
nurses began Chi Eta Phi for two specific purposes:
-
Elevating the plane of nursing and
-
Increasing interest in the field of nursing.
