Establishing a Chapter

Welcome and thank you for your interest in establishing an Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International chapter at your institution of higher education!

The mission of Sigma Theta Tau International is to provide leadership and scholarship in practice, education and research to enhance the health of all people. We support the learning and professional development of our members, who strive to improve nursing care worldwide. By establishing a chapter, your members will experience the benefits of belonging to an international member organization that provides leadership and knowledge resources to nurses in practice, academia, administration and research. Member Benefits include resources and services in continuing education, networking opportunities, research grants, publications, career development, educational events, research tools and involvement and recognition.
