Is there a career technical student organization (CTSO) for Home Economics Careers and Technology?
FHA-HERO is the co-curricular student organization for California’s Home Economics Careers and Technology programs. In addition to friendship and fun, FHA-HERO offers leadership, citizenship, career development and recognition opportunities for students. FHA-HERO extends the classroom content into an advisor-guided, student-led organization that enhances members’ skills through individual and group activities. Examples of activities include serving as chapter, regional, state and national officers; working on community service activities; and competing in one of the competitive events related to the HECT curriculum. FHA-HERO students are poised for leadership positions in the workplace thanks to the strong foundation in leadership they acquired as students.
