Chapter Committees
Chapter committees are small groups of FFA members who work together to plan activities, lead projects, and help the chapter operate effectively. They are important as they give members leadership experience, allow more voices to be heard, and help ensure the chapter’s events and goals are organized and successful.
Strengthening Agriculture
Strengthening Agriculture helps connect FFA members with their families and community while promoting agriculture. These activities support agricultural education, encourage new members to join FFA, improve safety in the community, and speak up for agriculture. They also help people better understand where food, fiber, and fuel come from and why agriculture is important in everyday life.
