YOUTH MEMBERS

All members have leadership potential, whether or not they hold formal chapter or state leadership positions. It often comes down to exploring abilities, taking risks, and developing a personal leadership style. Different kinds of leaders are needed for different experiences.

Here are opportunities available for youth members to develop their leadership skills in FCCLA:

• Participate in the Leadership STAR Event, or other Competitive Events.
• Complete the Power of One National Program each year. 
• Lead the chapter in implementing a service project aligned with a National Program.
• Serve as a leader at the chapter level.
• Run for election to be a State Officer.
• Lead youth sessions at state and national conferences, if opportunities are available.
• Evaluate state and/or national Competitive Events.
• Volunteer to review and evaluate National Program Award Application submissions.
• Attend FCCLA Webinars.
