The international HOSA theme for the 2026-2027 school year was announced as Redefine the Standard! As we begin the year, we invite you to embrace this year’s ILC theme, REDEFINE THE STANDARD, by collaborating with HOSA members within and outside of your chapters. You are bound to build connections with not only members and advisors but many valued professionals in healthcare. One who finds a home in HOSA finds a family for life!

Affiliated members had an opportunity to submit a brand design concept for both the 2026-2027 t-shirt and lapel pin to be displayed and distributed at the Missouri HOSA State Leadership Conference. The Top 10 design submissions were voted on at the Missouri HOSA 2026 Fall Leadership Conference on October 12-13, 2026 by the registered participants. Submissions were encouraged to incorporate this year’s HOSA Theme and the Missouri HOSA theme of “Stepping into the Spotlight”.
Missouri HOSA is excited to announce that the submission from Sheen Khan from Columbia Area Career Center was chosen as the winner of this year’s t-shirt and pin design!
