Arizona FCCLA is grateful to offer a strong and empowering leadership experience for our members: being a member of the State Executive Council. If you have a student that is interested in this experience, encourage them to read more about the opportunity at www.azfccla.org/sec-elections. A comprehensive Step-by-Step Guide has been published and will outline the process for running for state office. More information will be released in the weeks to come. If you have any questions about this opportunity, please email leadership@azfccla.org.

Join Arizona FCCLA as we offer the first-ever Fall Leadership Experience! Utilizing modern technology, this platform will allow teachers to implement professional skills training within their virtual and in-person classrooms. When teachers login, they will gain access to pre-recorded sessions hosted by teachers, state officers and nationally recognized speakers.

We have added additional videos including a welcome video from the 2020-2021 State Executive Council.

We will be adding additional content to the platform each month - with the platform remaining available until May 31, 2021. To learn more visit www.azfccla.org/flc.

Arizona FCCLA is excited to offer a virtual Adviser Competitive Events Success Training (ACES) for advisers to gain the knowledge they need to prepare their students for successful competition at the 2021 State Leadership Conference. This virtual conference will allow advisers to participate in breakout rooms specific to competitive events related to their program and learn strategies to help their students be successful. For more information, or to register, visit www.azfccla.org/aces-training.

We understand there are a lot of questions surrounding the 2021 State Leadership Conference and what it will look like. We are planning for a variety of situations and will share additional information as it becomes available. One thing we can say for certain: competitive events will happen! The Arizona Proficiency Events Guide and menus for Baking & Pastry and Culinary Arts will be posted on the Arizona FCCLA website in the beginning of November. We appreciate your patience as we work through this together!

We are excited to launch the all new iCan Lead PSA Contest in partnership with The Next Step Foundation Team Brandon. This contest challenges members to develop a 25 second public service announcement bringing awareness to the consequences of impaired driving. There will be three (3) Grand Prize winners and three (3) runner ups. This contest is exclusive to Arizona FCCLA members only. Click here to learn more.

Each month, Arizona FCCLA recognizes one member - nominated by a chapter adviser and selected by the State Executive Council - as Member of the Month. This individual has made an impact on the organization, actively participates in FCCLA and contributes to their community. The individuals who are awarded Member of the Month will be recognized at the 2021 State Leadership Conference and considered for Member of the Year. Click here to nominate a Member of the Month.

The application for the Outstanding Chapter Award has been published at www.azfccla.org/state-programs. This is an all new application based on accumulating the most amount of points possible allowing advisers to adopt a pick and choose model. This new structure was developed based on feedback from advisers and the Membership & Recognition Committee of the Board of Directors. Applications are due by February 21, 2020 at 11:59 PM.
