Who Are We?

NHSA is the largest Hellenic student and young professional organization in North America, with over 50 member-chapters, which promotes Hellenism, education, mentorship, and overall unity of the Hellenic community.

NHSA has provided guidance, career advice, mentorship, and life-long opportunities, in tandem with local Hellenic organizations, to North American citizens of Hellenic descent for over ten years. NHSA has been uniting and offering resources to Greeks, Greek/Cypriot-Americans, Greek/Cypriot-Canadians, and Philhellenes since its inception in 2004. 

NHSA has several initiatives and programs, the largest of which is our semi-annual conventions taking place in the fall and spring. Conventions take places in different cities and universities in the US and Canada, each offering a unique experience. These conventions are educational, professional, and social in nature, providing participants with a well-rounded experience. Attendees have the opportunity to learn about various topics, network with professionals in their fields, and socialize with each other.
