The FPA was founded with the mission to promote diversity and equality of job opportunities in NFL coaching, front office, and scouting staff. Through advocacy, education, and collaboration, we aim to ensure that the NFL front office and team operations reflect the diversity of the league's players and fans. We push for the recruitment, advancement, and retention of minority candidates in coaching, scouting, and management positions, and as an extension of our mission, we also champion diversity and inclusion at all levels of football.
