California Association FHA-HERO CREED
(Adopted March 29, 2004)I am a member of the California Association FHA-HERO.
I believe in the value of Home Economics Careers and Technology Education.
The education I receive through this program prepares me for success
in a challenging and productive career.
I believe in the dignity of work. I know that diligent effort is the foundation upon which all success is built. I recognize the significance of home economics related industries to the strength of our economy and the viability of the family unit in our society.
I believe that a successful career professional must be equipped with effective interpersonal and leadership skills. I recognize the FHA-HERO organization as an excellent opportunity for personal development. Through involvement in FHA-HERO activities I am confident I will improve my value in the workplace and my contribution to family and community.
I believe in democracy’s meaning, the value that comes from people who are different in origin, strength and contributions. I know that democracy has its roots in positive family living and must first be achieved in the home before it can be achieved in the world.
I believe through participation in Home Economics Careers and Technology and FHA-HERO, I gain a better understanding of justice, courage, integrity, cooperation, and trust. I accept the challenge to use these ideals to contribute to the betterment of my home, community, and work.
I am a member of the California Association FHA-HERO.
