Greetings Brothers of the Eastern Region,

the Eastern Region is pleased to present the official Convention Call for the 87th Anniversary Eastern Region Convention of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated, to be held April 25 – April 28, 2019, in Albany, New York.
This year our convention theme is “The Unending fight for freedom, equality, and fraternity.” – Alpha Lighting the Future. The purpose of this theme is us arming the Region, the Districts, Areas, Chapters, and Members with training that will strengthen our engagement in the communities we serve and ourselves. As you will see from the attached schedule, we want to address real issues while providing training to increase our political, economic and personal standing, while purposely addressing “The Urgency of Now.”
Each workshop will focus on a specific group of brothers with the purpose of raising their “ALPHAIQ”! This year the regional convention will have specific educational tracks that brothers will attend which focus on their core skill sets or desires.
We also plan to “Advocate, Regulate & Empower” the brotherhood through our Fraternal Networking Luncheon. We are asking Brothers when you register to indicate your major and/or profession; as on the Friday of the Convention we will have a focused conversation among brothers about career development and empowering our college and alumni brothers in their professional journeys.
Brothers we look forward to seeing all of you at the 2019 Regional Convention as the Brothers of Omicron Upsilon, Pi Pi, Rho Sigma, Beta Pi Lambda & NYACOA work tirelessly to provide you the best convention experience possible.
We look forward to when Brothers will once again “enter, shake hands, exchange greetings and depart friends” in our beloved House of Alpha! Therefore, we encourage you to make plans and register now!
