AFA members work to promote responsible breeding and care of birds. The volunteer organization provides assistance and resources to all people involved with companion birds including breeders, owners, researchers, vets and rescue organizations. AFA members actively support research projects designed to make life better for parrots in their native habitats.
==History==
The AFA was formed in 1974 after government officials decided to euthanize flocks of exotic parrots in an effort to eradicate instances of avian diseases. As part of the State of California's effort to curb an outbreak of Exotic Newcastle Disease, the USDA confiscated and euthanized sick birds, along with "thousands of healthy birds,"〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.afabirds.org/about.shtml )〕 while proposing legislation to ban private ownership of avian pets. The AFA was incorporated in California as the overall entity to represent bird clubs whose members wanted to protection for their birds.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.afabirds.org/about.shtml )
