It pioneered in many areas of concern such as education, employment, accessibility, transportation, sports, and recreation on behalf of those with disabilities.Since its founding, Delta Sigma Omicron has contributed significant funding to charities aiding persons with disabilities. Finally, its members have conducted, participated in and have been subjects for research furthering rehabilitation.
