CPIR Geography Reference API
Public, unauthenticated reference data served alongside the Parent Center directory: ISO 3166-1 country records with alpha-2 and alpha-3 codes, ISO 4217 currency and calling codes; administrative subdivisions with centroids and bounding boxes (US states and territories); and country boundary geometry as GeoJSON (RFC 7946). This is the geography layer the Find Your Parent Center map is built on. Verified live on 2026-09-05.
