What happens to a chapter during a suspension?

When a chapter is suspended, it is unable to participate in FCCLA events. Suspension typically means that the chapter has violated certain policies or standards set by the organization, leading to a temporary halt in its ability to engage in official activities. This lack of participation in events can significantly impact the chapter's ability to achieve its goals and maintain member engagement.

While there are implications regarding funding and operational autonomy, the key aspect of suspension lies in the restriction on participation. This can limit networking opportunities, access to resources, and the ability to showcase achievements during events, which are crucial for a chapter's visibility and success.
