This Association is organized to "encourage fidelity integrity to the Service and better understanding and fellowship and to advance the best interests of the enlisted personnel of the Coast Guard especially of those associated as members of this organization and to extend all possible relief to their surviving spouse and children; to foster the cultivation of military discipline and true allegiance to the United States of America..."

The purposes for which the Association is formed are: to take care of members and their dependents who may be in urgent need of assistance financial or otherwise; to assist in recruiting for the United States Coast Guard; support the aim and goals of the Chief Petty Officer's Academy; to assemble for social amenities; become involved in community affairs; promote social programs for those in need; and keep informed on United States Coast Guard matters; whereby we may continue to serve in loyalty to the Nation and the United States Coast Guard. These together with the Preamble to our Constitution and the By-laws define the purpose of the Chief Petty Officers Association.

The USCG Chief Petty Officers Association (CPOA) is a not for profit organization.
