AFA is a volunteer-led organization working to communicate key national security issues at the national, state, and local levels. The top-level support from the Secretary of the Air Force, Chief of Staff of the Air Force, Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force, Director of the Air National Guard, and Chief of the Air Force Reserve help us fulfill this goal. Our more than 200 chapters across the country drive community awareness about the impact of the Air Force through elections and a variety of programs. From our national headquarters in Arlington, VA, the AFA staff organizes programs ranging from conference and symposia to aerospace education initiatives and advocacy efforts with Congressional leaders.
