⚠️Recommendation (but not a requirement):
If you need more help because of your chapter has a large number of HSAFP members (or, maybe one of your officers won’t be at school for a while, or you want honorary members to help), your leadership team can also add four additional HSAFP Representatives.
These HSAFP Representatives should try to be from each class (9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grades).
In addition to these responsibilities, what are some of the most important characteristics of being an effective HSAFP Chapter Officer?
We are looking for leaders who are willing to learn how to be adaptable, ethical, and empathetic in a variety of difficult situations. Leaders who are organized and support the HSAFP chapter as a whole will be crucial to your chapter’s success. If your other Chapter Officers, or members, need your support, be that leader who steps in, listens, and helps!
