The FBI Agents Association (FBIAA) is an organization dedicated to providing support and advocacy for
active and former Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
FBI Special Agents put their lives on the line every day in service of our country. The risks they take and the burdens they bear are shared by their families. Behind every FBI Special Agent is a family. And behind every family is the FBIAA.
Distinguished Service Honoree & Keynote Speaker
Special Agent Jerri Williams (Ret.)
Jerri Williams served 26 years as a Special Agent with the FBI. During most of her Bureau career she worked major economic fraud investigations.
Jerri leans on her federal law enforcement experience to host and produce a popular true crime and history podcast — FBI Retired Case File Review — where she interviews retired FBI agents about their high-profile cases and careers. Her work highlights the great work done by Agents in the field every day.
As a celebrated author, Jerri also corrects misconceptions about the FBI. Her book FBI Myths and Misconceptions: A Manual for Armchair Detectives presents the top 20 clichés about the FBI and breaks down the facts. She has also written several crime novels including Pay to Play and Greedy Givers.
The G-Man Honors virtual event benefits FBIAA’s two charitable funds – the Memorial College Fund and the Membership Assistance Fund. Both of these 501(c)(3) organizations offer vital assistance to FBI families in need. Your tax deductible contribution to the Memorial College Fund and the Membership Assistance Fund will make a difference in the lives of Agents and their families.

The FBIAA Memorial College Fund
The FBIAA MCF provides scholarships for the children and spouses of deceased FBI Agents. Since its inception, the Fund has assisted more than 260 children and distributed over $8.7 million in college tuition money. For the 2019-2020 school year, 33 students received payment for 75% of their college expenses, including tuition, room, board, and books, totaling over $655,000. There are currently 60 children that are eligible but not yet in college that we are planning to assist, a number that continues to grow as the FBI community experiences more 9/11 cancer-related deaths. Of the 60 eligible children, 16 are MCF eligible due to line of duty deaths.
The FBIAA Membership Assistance Fund
The FBIAA MAF provides financial assistance to FBIAA members and their families who have been affected by sudden hardship or tragedy. The Fund has helped families make emergency travel, afford treatments for grave illnesses and injuries, purchase necessary durable medical equipment, and pay for funeral expenses.
