Associates of the American Foreign Service Worldwide (AAFSW) is a membership-based and accredited 501(c)(3) association within the American Foreign Affairs Community, that has evolved to include Foreign Service and Civil Service employees, spouses, partners, members of household and retirees since our establishment in 1960.
Since 2018, AAFSW has been a recognized Department of State Employee Organization. You may know AAFSW for our annual Art and Book Fair, which raises money for scholarships and programs, the Secretary of State Award for Outstanding Volunteerism Abroad and advocacy for family members that led to the creation of the Global Community Liaison Office and Overseas Briefing Center, which grew to become the Transition Center at FSI.
