Youth partnerships within the DMV community are necessary for the advancement and ultimate survival of organizations such as local community centers and recreational facilities. It is important to develop strong community partnerships that directly align with the mission and vision of the College Park Sandy Spring (MD) Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Guide Right Program. This is especially true when it comes to our youth. It is the College Park Sandy Spring Alumni Chapter's (www.cpsskapsi.org) duty to invest in our youth; in the future they will lead our local and global economies and make decisions that will affect future generations.

We will devote 100 percent of our time and effort to creating formidable partnerships with programs that enhance our visibility and viability, thereby creating a “win-win” situation for all involved.
