The Coast Guard Chief Petty Officers Association (CPOA) was chartered on April 7, 1969.

The Coast Guard CPOA was formed to advance the interests of the United States Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Corps, encouraging integrity and fidelity to the Service, and fellowship within our ranks. In 1991, the Coast Guard Enlisted Association was chartered by and for junior enlisted personnel, under the auspices of the CPOA, reinforcing the Association’s motto – “In respect for those who have gone before us, and as a guide for those who follow”.

The CPOA and the CGEA proudly serve Coast Guard and other military active duty and reserve members, Veterans, their families and their communities. Through our strong and united network of over 10,000 members, we work to advance the interests of our membership through community service, scholarships and fundraising, and by partnering with military and veterans organizations, both locally and nationally.

The New Haven Chapter of the National Chief Petty Officers Association, advocates for the well-being of Active Duty and Reserve personnel with the United States Coast Guard within the New Haven, CT area. We are a not-for-profit veteran’s organization that gives back to military members and families in need.  Some of the ways we give back include gift baskets for expectant mothers, food assistance, financial assistance, and airfare for emergency leave.

Your support for this golf outing will allow the CPOA to continue giving back to the military members that need it the most.
