AIRS is now Inform USA! Check out all the details.
With great excitement, we announce the new name and brand of the organization formerly AIRS.
The name Inform USA was selected as it signifies our partnership with our partners to the north at Inform Canada and clearly states what we do in the U.S. The chat bubbles comprising the Inform USA icon (see the "o" in the name) visually represent the exchange of information our members provide on the front lines and the forefront of sector issues.
