Welcome To The Strategic Deterrent Coalition!

Welcome to the official website of the Strategic Deterrent Coalition (SDC-USA.org), a non-partisan, community-based organization dedicated to informing and educating the public and policymakers about the importance of a strong and effective nuclear deterrent for the security of the United States and its allies. Our mission is to support the continued investment and modernization of U.S. strategic deterrent capabilities to ensure a stable and secure world. Through advocacy, education, and outreach, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of the critical role that nuclear deterrence plays in maintaining peace and preventing conflict in an increasingly complex global security environment. Join us as we work towards a future where deterrence remains a cornerstone of national security strategy, ensuring the safety and freedom of generations to come.

What Is The Purpose Of The SDC?

The SDC’s purpose is to inform decision makers and thought leaders on how America’s nuclear weapons contribute to our strategic position, in a world where potential adversaries are modernizing, innovating, and gaining in almost every way. SDC focuses on the nation’s strategic deterrent – why it works, why it must be maintained, and how it contributes to global stability.
