The Association of Former Intelligence Officers (AFIO), was incorporated in 1975 as a 501(c)3 non-profit, non-political, educational association for current and former intelligence professionals and supporters of the US intelligence community. The Association is based in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
The Arizona Chapter of AFIO was established in 2005.
AFIO Chapters are groups which have formed locally and are supported and chartered by AFIO National Headquarters to conduct activities in consonance with current AFIO bylaws, principles and educational objectives. Through meetings, publications and scholarships, Chapter members serve to maintain and strengthen professional and collegial bonds.
