MaFLA

The Massachusetts Foreign Language Association is a non-profit service organization committed to the professional growth of its members and to the teaching and learning of languages and cultures.

The Massachusetts Foreign Language Association represents over 2000 second language teachers in the state of Massachusetts. They advocate for foreign language education because it opens the world to students, develops their understanding of other cultures, enhances many cognitive skills, and provides needed linguistic resources for national security and our global economy.
