The officers also learned techniques to improve their public speaking and meeting management skills through hands-on practice.
Future Homemakers of America is a dynamic and effective national student organization that helps young men and women become leaders and address important personal, family, work and societal issues through family and consumer sciences education. The organization has involved more than nine million youth since its founding in 1945.
FHA/HERO is unique among student organizations because its programs are planned and run by members. It is the only national in-school organization with the family as its central focus. Participation in national programs and chapter activities helps members become strong leaders in their families, careers and communities.
