Which program recognizes local FBLA chapters for maintaining or increasing membership?

The correct answer is the Membership Achievement Award, which specifically aims to recognize local FBLA chapters that have successfully maintained or increased their membership levels within a given timeframe. This program emphasizes the importance of growing the organization and encouraging greater participation among students. The focus on membership growth within this award highlights its role in motivating chapters to actively engage in recruiting and retaining members.

In contrast, while the Membership Recognition Program might seem relevant, it does not specifically target growth or maintenance of membership in the same way as the Membership Achievement Award. The Chapter Growth Initiative could suggest programs aimed at fostering expansion, but it isn't framed as an award for chapters' performance. Lastly, the Competitive Chapter Award typically pertains to overall chapter performance in various competitions and activities, rather than focusing specifically on membership numbers. Hence, the Membership Achievement Award is indeed the best fit for recognizing efforts in membership maintenance and growth among local FBLA chapters.
