AFSA's ongoing Book Notes series presents "50 Years in USAID: Stories from the Front Lines." This collection contains 115 brief essays by past and present USAID staff and administrators, organized by decades. To celebrate USAID’s 50th anniversary, the editors, Janet C. Ballantyne and Maureen Dugan, reached out to all USAID staff, alumni, and all living administrators to gather tales that would tell their story and seek their thoughts on serving at USAID.

Ms. Ballantyne and a number of the contributors will be in attendance to discuss the book and answer questions. Books will be available for purchase, courtesy of ADST. The price is $15.

The program takes place at AFSA HQ, 2101 E Street NW, at 2:00 pm on July 11. Please RSVP to events@afsa.org.
