Affiliation

 All Missouri 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 9 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.

Questions about affiliation? Contact the state office
​
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.

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.
  1. 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.
  2. 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).
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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 on the national website https://fcclainc.org/join/chapter-affiliation. Look for the "Affiliation Step-by-Step Instructions" in the upper right corner.

Affiliation Portal Tips

Here are some of the common issues that advisers encounter:
  1. When trying to affiliate, make sure you have completed the Graduation and Bulk Edit process. They will save you a lot of headache and have to be done before you can submit your affiliation.
  2. You have to confirm their consent forms before you can submit affiliation. (It is a red button in the same row as the Add Chapter Members button).
  3. Make sure to use the  Check for Duplicate Members button to avoid paying for the same student twice.
  4. If you discover that you have mis-spelled a student’s name, click on the icon that looks like a person’s head under the request change column and click Request Name Change. Complete the necessary information. The state office will have to approve it before the change takes effect.
