We are one district out of the 15 that make up the American Advertising Federation (AAF) .

The Sixth District of the American Advertising Federation represents seventeen affiliate advertising clubs and federations of the American Advertising Federation (AAF) in Indiana, Illinois and Michigan.

The Sixth District is proud of the college chapter associations of over 20 campuses in three states that participate in the National Student Advertising Competition (NSAC). Our district has been considered a mega district based on college participation in NSAC. This allows us to send two competing teams to the national NSAC competition held in June of each year.

There are fifteen AAF districts and they serve a vital role: They set the framework for well-known industry programs like the ADDY® Awards and the National Student Advertising Competition (NSAC). In each program, district-wide competitions yield top contenders, who then advance on to a national round.

The American Advertising Federation (AAF) is the only national grassroots trade association to encompass all segments of the advertising industry, including advertisers, agencies, corporate members, broadcast and print media companies, industry suppliers, new media, college chapters and national trade associations engaged in various advertising pursuits.

Local AAF chapters sponsor a variety of events, including programming that features regional and national industry-related speakers, professional development workshops, educational seminars, scholarships, public service initiatives, social events and local ADDY award competitions recognizing excellence in advertising.
