We are part of a national society, Daughters of the British Empire in the USA (DBE), a non-profit, non-political voluntary society of women of British or British Commonwealth birth or ancestry, who reside in the United States of America.

DBE in Kansas, Inc. covers the Greater Kansas City, Missouri metropolitan area- both sides of the state line- as well as the state of Kansas.

Five chapters meet in and around Kansas City from the Northland to Belton, Independence to Lenexa and Overland Park.. A sixth chapter covers Lawrence and Topeka. New chapters may form! Monthly meetings (chapter and state board) are business meetings, with tea and social time before or afterwards.
