Sigma Sigma Sigma (ΣΣΣ), also known as Tri Sigma, is a national American women's sorority.

Sigma Sigma Sigma is a member of the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC), an umbrella organization encompassing 26 national sororities or women's fraternities, which focus on service, education, scholarship programming and social activities. Once a sorority exclusively for teacher's/educational colleges, Tri Sigma became a full NPC member in 1951 and, as a social sorority, now admits members without limits based on major or career field. The sorority counts a membership of more than 140,000 women, hosts chapters on more than 100 college campuses, and maintains over 90 alumnae chapters. The sorority's own headquarters are located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.^[1]
