The Ice Age Floods Institute (IAFI) was founded in 1995 as an educational nonprofit. It is dedicated to promoting public awareness and education relating to the significance of the Ice Age Floods. Eleven chapters are located across Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Montana. The chapters, operating at the local level, offer monthly opportunities for members and the public to learn about the Ice Age Floods.
