As many of you know, Capital NAAFA is not just a social group but a part of a Human Rights Organization. Just by attending a function, you are making a statement that it’s great to be who you are, whether you are a Big Beautiful Woman, a Big Handsome Man or a Fat Admirer. You may have seen our contributions to reports in the Washington Post as well as Fox Channel 5. You may also recall our appearances on Showtime’s Penn and Teller show as well as the classic documentary “Big As Life” which can be still be seen on the Discovery Channel. More activist accomplishments can be found here . As they say on public television, we can do even more with your help!

Why choose NAAFA as your place to socialize? Because NAAFA events are private events open to BBW/BHM and those that love and support us. We meet in a closed venue where you can feel assured that no one is judging you due to your size. Our venues meet ADA guidelines and are accessible to those who have mobility or other issues. 

Come and meet like-minded people! There's a little bit for everyone: activism conversations, dancing and social chitchat, making new friends.

Members and Non-Members, Singles and Couples are always welcome at any NAAFA event.
