American Family Association, Inc.
Mission:
AFA is for people who are tired of cursing the darkness and who are ready to light a candle. We are a non-profit (501(c)(3)) organization founded in 1977 by Don Wildmon. AFA stands for traditional family values, focusing primarily on the influence of television and other media - including pornography - on our society.
AFA believes that the entertainment industry, through its various products, has played a major role in the decline of those values on which our country was founded and which keep a society and its families strong and healthy. For example, over the last 20 years we have seen the entertainment industry "normalize" and glorify premarital sex. During that time we have suffered a dramatic increase in teen pregnancies, sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS and abortion as a means of birth control.

Love and compassion require us to tell the truth about sin. The AFA is an organization of amazing resolve to hold fast to God's plan for a better way ...
