What We Do

The Texas Council of Chapters acts as the representative of its member Chapters, their membership; non-affiliated Chapters and their membership; and National MOAA members who are not affiliated with a Chapter but reside in Texas to the Texas Coalition, The Texas Legislature and various other organizations within the State of Texas. It is the role of the Texas Council, as well, to advocate for the benefits, welfare and pay of those represented to our Senators and Representatives in the US Congress and the same in the State Legislature. This is done irregardless of political parties and is strictly apolitical!
The Texas Council also has the role of disseminating information to the aforementioned groups to keep them apprised of the goals of the National and State MOAA organization. This is normally done through the MOAA Texan that is published and periodically updated on this website.
It is also the charge of the Texas Council to encourage the participation of MOAA Chapters across the state in its quarterly meetings, held at various locations throughout the state. These meetings are open to any MOAA member who so desires to attend them as well as designated Chapter delegates. These quarterly meetings are a time of reporting of current activities at the State and National level as well as the sharing of activities and ideas from the participating Chapters. Usually, outside speakers will be presented to address these Chapter representatives in other matters of interest to the group.	Ed McCarthy, Jim Cunningham & Adm. Ryan
The Texas Council of Chapters is also most interested in encouraging the development of Chapters and Satellite Chapters in those areas of the state that have an interest. The Council is also there to help Chapters or Satellites develop activities which would be of benefit to its members or outreaches to areas where they can serve the needs of Active Duty, Reserve or National Guard soldiers as well as retirees. The Council is always open to ideas and comments from the MOAA membership. Please contact us and let us know what your ideas are so that we might share them with the membership.
