FCCLA Traditions

Our Motto:

Toward New Horizons

Colors:

The colors are red and white. Red symbolizes strength, courage, and determination; personal qualities leading to happiness through a positive self-image. White symbolizes sincerity of purpose and integrity of action; qualities that help individuals build a better tomorrow.

Emblem:

The logo is red, the color of the rose as a sign of strength. The swooping arrow arch is a common motif in today's designs and definitely embodies an active organization that moves toward new arenas. With it's space-like feel, this logo is sure to last through the next fifty years, but will always be linked to the time when FHA at the turn of the century changed to FCCLA

Flower

The red rose represents the organization because it gives joy through its beauty and fragrance. It symbolizes a desire for beauty in everyday living.

Creed

We are the Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America.
We face the future with warm courage
And high hope.

For we have the clear consciousness of seeking
Old and precious values,
For we are the builders of homes,
Homes for America’s future,
Homes where living will be the expression of everything
That is good and fair,
Homes where truth and love and security and faith
Will be realities, not dreams.

We are the Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America.

We face the future with warm courage
And high hope.
