Adult Film Association of America

The Adult Film Association of America (AFAA) was an organization founded in the 1960s to support and promote the adult film industry. It aimed to establish standards, recognize excellence through awards, and foster professional networking within the adult entertainment community. The AFAA helped legitimize adult films as a distinct artistic and commercial genre, advocating for industry rights and acknowledgment. Over time, it played a key role in the development and recognition of adult cinema as a legitimate form of entertainment, influencing industry practices and award recognition programs.
