Senior Ambassadors Coalition History
In 1998, the BSA Foundation asked members of the community that work with aging adults to assess the needs of this population, identify gaps in services and work to meet those needs. Soon a name was chosen and the initial group became Senior Ambassadors Coalition (SAC). Now a 501 (C) 3, it represents a large diverse group of individuals, companies and organizations that provide services to this group.
