Guardian Chapters

Florida HOSA Chapters can earn the unique distinction of becoming a “Guardian Chapter” – guarding Florida HOSA’s commitment to our core values of Learning, Leadership, Service, and Innovation by valiantly striving to make sure that our organization continues into the future shining brighter than ever before!  The “Guardian Chapter” designation will be granted in the 2024 – 2025 academic year as follows:

1.  Must have a registered chapter team page on the NMDP website portal for the 2024-2025 academic year with 100 points or more earned before February 1st.  (Note: chapter team pages must be reset each academic year – visit www.bethematchhosa.org for more details.)

     AND

2.  Must have affiliated members accordingly:

    • A chapter that affiliated in 2023 – 2024 must meet or exceed their chapter membership number from the 2023/24 academic year before February 1st and include an affiliated Chapter Advisor.
    • An existing chapter that did not affiliate in 2023 – 2024 must meet or exceed their chapter membership number from their most recent year of affiliation before February 1st and include an affiliated Chapter Advisor.
    • A brand-new chapter in the 2024 – 2025 academic year must affiliate at least five (5) members, plus the Chapter Advisor, before February 1st.

Please contact the Florida HOSA State Office if you do not know your school’s previous membership total.

Florida HOSA will recognize these exceptional chapters by posting their school name to this Guardian Chapter Page after October 15th and January 1st.  In addition, during the General Sessions at SLC, they will be highlighted on the large screens and distinguished in the SLC Program.

Also, members of a designated Guardian Chapter can purchase a striking, high polished copper-plated lapel pin for $1.50 each (plus postage) through their advisor to commemorate their Guardian Chapterhood.

Ordered Guardian Chapter Pins will be mailed out after the affiliation dates of October 15th and January 1st.
