It is a highly respected, non-partisan, non-profit organization. Last year, I heard its president, [[Frank J. Gaffney, Jr.]] (a former Assistant Secretary of Defense) give a speech that deeply inspired me to serve my country by using my experience as a publisher of women’s magazines to communicate to American women what we need to know."<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20040812005918/http://familysecuritymatters.com/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=7 About Us], Family Security Matters, via the Internet Archive, archived 12 August 2009, accessed 18 October 2009.</ref>
