Which statement about the National FFA Convention & Expo delegates is accurate?

• A. They oversee local chapters
• B. They set the future direction of the organization
• C. They manage daily finances
• D. They grant new charters to chapters

Answer: (B)

Delegates at the National FFA Convention & Expo shape the organization’s direction. They come from each state association to participate in governance, voting on constitutional amendments, electing national officers, and approving the national budget. These actions set policies and priorities that guide what the organization does in the coming years. Local chapters are run by chapter officers and advisors under state association oversight, daily finances are managed by the national staff and officers, and chartering new chapters follows a formal process involving the state association and national office. This is why setting the future direction is the accurate description of their role.
