STRUCTURE OF AZA
[HAZAKAH AZA] The Chapter: The smallest, most specialized group, is the chapter. Every member of AZA belongs to a chapter and every chapter is like a large family. The chapter level is the most direct and focused. It is here that you will make your closest friends. It is in your chapter that you will plan programs and learn the meaning of what it is to be a Brother Aleph.
[ATLANTA COUNCIL] The Council: Several chapters that are in the same area make up the next level of AZA, the council. Councils are usually used to break up large regions (the next level) so as to make them more cohesive.
[SOUTHERN REGION] The Region: The region is the next level of AZA. The purpose of the regional level is two-fold. Regions serve to bring chapters together so that they can exchange ideas, socialize, compete, and work together on projects that require many people. The second purpose of the regional level is to service the chapters and help them in any way possible.
Overseas Districts: Outside of North America there is another level not used in the United States or Canada. The District level is typically made up of entire countries. Chapters can be found in Israel, District 14; The United Kingdom and Ireland, District 15; Continental Europe, District 14; South America, District 20; Australia and New Zealand, District 21; Central America, District 23; South Africa, District 24; and Brazil, District 25.
International: The entire AZA makes up the International Level. The major purpose of this level is much like that of the regions, but on a larger scale. It serves to bring every Al eph from every chapter and from every region together under one banner. The Aleph Zadik Aleph is a large and proud organization. Every Aleph is part of the International Order of the Aleph Zadik Aleph. It is the proud banner behind which we all stand united.
