The fall affiliation deadline for National FCCLA is quickly approaching.

Missouri Affiliation Deadline

The important winter affiliation deadline for Missouri FCCLA is going to be here quicker than we know it! In order for members to compete in STAR Events, run for regional and/or state office, and apply for Legislative Shadowing chapters must be fully-affiliated by December 8. Fully-affiliated means that all dues must be paid and processed by National FCCLA - if paying by check, be sure to allow plenty of time for the check to arrive at the National Headquarters AND be processed into the affiliation system.
