Career Connection State Outreach Project, 2025-26

Career Connection

Montana FCCLA encourages chapters to apply for up to $200 to carry out projects related to the state outreach project.

This year the State Executive Council has decided to focus on using the Career Connection National Program to encourage chapters to increase their knowledge regarding career exploration and preparation, then develop student-led outreach projects designed for members to share what they have learned within their communities. FCCLA chapters have the opportunity to apply for funding to help offset the cost of their project through the Montana FCCLA website. The funds can be used to purchase supplies or provide equipment necessary to conduct the outreach project.
