The MOAA Surviving Spouse Advisory Committee (SSAC) was originally established in 2004 as the Auxiliary Member Advisory Committee (AMAC).  The Committee name change to Surviving Spouse Advisory Committee (SSAC) in 2015 was made to more accurately describe the particular membership population segment both MOAA and the Committee serve. However, the mission of the Committee remains the same: to represent the interest of all surviving spouse members, to ensure they continue to feel a part of our military and MOAAA family, and to raise the awareness of MOAA National as well as Councils and Chapters about the needs and issues of surviving spouses.
