Overview

Mission

Career and technical student organization youth leadership program. To develop leadership for middle level, junior high and high school students to gain personal development, leadership skills, career preparation through family and consumer sciences education. Students focus on multiple roles as wage earners, family members and community involvement.

What it reported doing in 2024

Minnesota fccla engages students, grades 7 through 12, in leadership development training, competitions, and service project learning throughout the year. Programming focused on personal growth, leadership development and career and technical training through conferences and events at the local, area, state, and national level. With over 1500 students competing in 50 different types of events, members applied real world skills used in human services, hospitality and tourism, education and training, and visual arts and design. As a student led organization, Minnesota fccla empowered cohorts of students to develop and apply their own leadership over this programming by planning the conferences and events, facilitating sessions and workshops to their peers, leading local service projects and providing general guidance to the organization.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
