Affiliation

All Minnesota chapters are required to use the national affiliation system. If you are not sure if your school has a chapter established in this system please contact the State Adviser.

The national office has developed several documents to assist you in navigating the affiliation system. Please visit the national site for the most up-to-date information. If you should run into any problems or have any questions please contact the state adviser.

Deadline Reminder: Affiliation payment must be received by December 16 for eligibility in regional, state and national STAR Events and officer candidates. All dues are sent to the national office and must be processed by this date.

Remember that according to state and national bylaws only chapters affiliated with the regional, state, and national associations shall use the name Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA). It is illegal and unethical to use the name Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) and not be affiliated on all levels.

Total Dues per individual member is $20.00. This is paid to National FCCLA in the affiliation system and the state dues are returned to the state.

National Dues – $9 each. State Dues – $11 each.

The minimum chapter is for 12 members. Primary adviser dues are required. Secondary adviser dues are optional)

Middle Level Affiliation Programs

The Middle Level Affiliation Program is designed for middle school chapters with 51 or more members in grades 6-8. National dues are $250 and state/regional dues are $150 regardless of the total number of student members.
Chapters interested in this opportunity should contact the state adviser.

Each year it is important to confirm and update a variety of information in the affiliation system. Below are some steps to take to make sure the system is up to date and ready for the new year. When verifying or updating information please check capitalization.

When you log in for the first time you will be shown a screen of information associated with the chapter. Please read the information and update as needed before pressing the confirm button.
Review the information in the chapter adviser tab. Here you can add a new adviser if needed and see any information associated with the current adviser(s).
Click the pencil icon next to each adviser and make sure the information is correct and updated. Please complete as many fields as you can including your home address in the addresses section.
Make sure you don’t have any outstanding invoices from last year. You can find them in the invoices tab. Any outstanding invoices will prevent you from being able to affiliate this year.
Open the chapter information tab and verify all information in each of the sections. If you see an error in fields that are locked please contact the state office. Update any blank fields.
Get a head start on cleaning up your membership list by graduating members who have graduated or moved up in grade and will be at a new building. Information on how to do that can be found above.

Now you are ready for the year! See additional information on this page for further instructions on working in the affiliation system.
