What type of competitions does FCCLA offer its members?

FCCLA provides a unique platform for its members through STAR Events, which stands for Students Taking Action with Recognition. These events are designed to recognize members for their achievements, skills, and knowledge in various areas, including leadership, community service, and specific content areas related to Family and Consumer Sciences.

STAR Events allow members to demonstrate their skills in competitive settings, which reinforces learning and personal growth. Participants can enter events that include areas like advocacy, career pathways, entrepreneurship, and culinary arts, among others. This hands-on approach fosters critical thinking, teamwork, and real-world application of their academic and practical skills, which is a core component of FCCLA’s mission to promote personal growth and leadership development among its members.

This emphasis on practical application and recognition through competition is what sets STAR Events apart, making them an integral part of the FCCLA experience.
