What We Do

The HSFSA provides free remote and in-person guest speakers to its chapters. The speakers are former and current diplomats - Officers of the U.S. Foreign Service - who share inside knowledge, personal experiences, and opinions on current foreign policy and diplomacy as a career field.

To provide an abundance of qualified and passionate speakers, the HSFSA works with its partner organizations - the American Foreign Service Association (AFSA) and the State Department's Bureau of Global Public Affairs (GPA) - and uses its own contacts.
