Welcome from the Detroit Chapter

The Detroit Chapter of Jack & Jill, Inc. was founded in January 1953 with a group of 15 mothers. The first president of the Detroit chapter was Frances Polk. Interest in membership to the newly founded Detroit chapter was electric. At the installation of new members in September 1953, 42 mothers were installed.

Today, the Detroit chapter has 74 members and a national membership that boasts over 9.000 mothers.  A proud member of the Mighty Midwestern Region, the Detroit Chapter is deeply rooted in a legacy of leaders.  Never to be gatekeepers of the status-quo, the mother’s and children of the chapter strive to uphold the national vision for our organization, Leadership.
