The Parents Association exists to support
the Corps of Cadets, the Coast Guard Academy and the parents of all
cadets. We also actively support and encourage applicants, prospective
cadets, and their parents as they navigate their way through the
Admissions process and make the difficult choices involved in the
collegiate selection process.
Mission
The Parents Association is "a non-profit organization which exists for the sole purpose of supporting the US Coast Guard Academy and its Corps of Cadets. It seeks to expand public understanding and appreciation of the Academy; to encourage well-qualified young men and women to apply for appointments as Cadets; to assist with the orientation of new cadets and their parents; to promote communication between parents, cadets and the Academy Administration; and to make known to its membership the opportunities for participating in Academy and support projects offered by the United States Coast Guard Academy Alumni Association."
