Our Mission

Rites of Sisterhood (ROS) is an organization of college and professional women dedicated to fostering the social, emotional, spiritual, and cognitive growth of young adolescent women through defining the essence of sisterhood.

 

Using self-determination, self-responsibility, and self-discovery as our three core principles, ROS strives to strengthen the University of Southern California’s surrounding community by guiding young women of color through the uncertain years of adolescence.
