Dear HSFSA chapter members, officers, and advisors,

Since 2021, the High School Foreign Service Association (HSFSA) has worked to bring diplomacy and the U.S. Foreign Service to high schools across the U.S. Having garnered a strong community and impacted thousands of students, the organization is entering a new stage in its journey.

To that end, we are broadening our mission to additional aspects of international relations education and awareness, while still maintaining a strong focus on the Foreign Service. From now on, the organization is known as the Youth International Relations Coalition (YIRC). We are excited to keep working with all our old chapters throughout this transition!
Mission:
  • Raise awareness about the U.S. Foreign Service and the work of its officers.
  • Forge the next generation of American diplomats through education and involvement.
The HSFSA is a national community of 150 high school chapters in 30 states.
Join 2,500+ students who care about diplomacy.
All of the HSFSA's programs are completely free.
