The first youth club, known as Zetalites, Archonettes or Amicettes, was formed in the 1950’s for all youth involved with the sorority. However, participation in club activities quickly increased to the point that the club was divided into two age groups Archonettes and Amicettes. In the 1970’s the Pearlettes was organized.

Xi Zeta proudly sponsors all three youth auxiliary groups- Archonettes, Amicettes, and Pearlettes.

Youth Affiliates

Archonettes are high school-aged (ages 14-18) young ladies who demonstrate an interest in the goals and the ideals of scholarship, sisterhood, and community service. The Archonettes are also designed to help youth grow culturally, socially and educationally.

Amicettes are girls ages 9 to 13 who are willing to strive toward the high ideals of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.,  who demonstrate potential for leadership in service to the community, and who are willing to work as part of a group.

Pearlettes are girls ages 4-8 who are mentored by ladies of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. to become outstanding leaders in their community and who are willing to work as part of a group.
