Since the establishment of our Chapter in 1984, Xi Psi Lambda has worked vigorously to provide voice, vision, leadership, and advocacy throughout the Manatee and Sarasota communities. For more than four decades, we have proudly served our community through our Fraternity’s national programs; Go-to-High School, Go-to-College; A Voteless People Is a Hopeless People; Project Alpha; and Brother’s Keeper.
