USDA is affiliated to the military junta, and serves to rally support for the current rulers of Myanmar. Its headquarters are in Yangon, Myanmar, and operates nation-wide. The motto of the organisation is "Morale, Discipline, Solidarity, Unity".
Its three national causes are:
- Non-disintegration of the Union
- Non-disintegration of national solidarity
- Perpetuation of sovereignty
It has also been criticised by many, as it has been known to harass pro-democracy activists.
