Diplomatic Security Special Agents Association (DSSAA)

About Us

DS Special Agents, DS Employees, DS Contractors, and members of the Uniformed Services assigned to DS, operate in nearly all countries and environments around the world, regardless of how hostile. No other U.S. government agency operates how or where DS does. Our unique mission in support of United States diplomacy and foreign policy, is why we are different. We are members of the U.S. Foreign Service and Law Enforcement/Security professionals. We are the highest trained and the most traveled. From the deserts of Africa, to the mountains of Peru, from Mogadishu to London, DS is present. We "Protect, Secure, Investigate", anywhere and everywhere. We are the Diplomatic Security Service.
The Diplomatic Security Special Agents Association (DSSAA) is a fraternal, benevolent association, classified as a 501(c)(6) with the IRS, which is open to all employees of the Diplomatic Security, not just Special Agents.
DSSAA fosters the development of professional and personal relationships between DS Special Agents, DS personnel (former and current), Couriers, SEO, STS, fraternal law enforcement organizations, law enforcement agencies, and members of the intelligence community.
DSSAA strives to establish a focal point of communication and promote the exchange of information regarding matters that are of mutual concern to DSSAA members.
DSSAA cannot serve as a bargaining unit, but endeavors to actively promote projects designed to support and benefit its members and their families.
DSSAA pledges itself to both the DSSAA member and their family. This is why the DSSAA motto is "Serving Those Who Serve".
DSSAA sales are used to support DSSAA social events, BSAC events, Field Office events, RSO, SEO and Courier events, family activities, and the Diplomatic Security Foundation (DSF).
