Over the years, Sorors made numerous attempts to charter a chapter, each one paving the way for what was to come. Then, on August 25th, 2023, in Salt Lake City, Utah, eleven extraordinary women came together to establish the Delta Alpha Rho Zeta Chapter (DARZ).

This historic moment not only marked the birth of DARZ but also made it the sole chapter in the state. Fueled by a vision of leaving a profound legacy of service to the community, these trailblazers laid the groundwork for DARZ to create an immediate and lasting impact.
