About the Auxiliary
Established by Congress in 1939, the Auxiliary assists the Coast Guard in
promoting boating safety. The Auxiliary's 35,000 plus members are drawn
together by their love of the water and a willingness to serve other boaters.
Members also receive special training so that they may be a functional part of
Team Coast Guard, a role which continues to grow as the Coast Guard expands
its mission of Homeland Defense.
Auxiliarists assist the Coast Guard in non-law enforcement programs such as
public education, vessel safety checks, safety patrols, search and rescue,
marine environmental protection and Coast Guard Academy introduction programs
for youth. Auxiliarists volunteer more than 2 million hours annually to
benefit other boaters and their families.
