Admistrative headquarters is at the home of the current President. As of 1 November 1999, we have enlisted over 2400 members. There are now four subsidiary groups located in Texas, Florida, Illinois and Virginia. The objectives of this organization shall be to:
1. Honor and publicize as a group (or in some cases individual) those who have served or are serving as Chief Petty Officers in the U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard or the Reserve Components of those services and who performed in an honorable manner.
2. Maintain true allegiance to the government of the United States and to promote patriotism and pride in their service in the Navy or Coast Guard and to encourage accelerated advancement in those services through study and accomplishment.
3. Conduct conventions with such members of the NCPOA to foster camaraderie.
The Chiefs is published at least four times each year

CHIEFS' QUARTERS are the subsidiary groups of the NCPOA. It is nesessary to have at least ten (10) CPOs, former, retired, reserve, and/or active in order to start a Chiefs' Quarters. Each Chiefs' Quarters sets their own local dues not to exceed the national dues of $1500 per year. At least four officers - President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer - must be elected. Any member of the NCPOA may start a Chiefs' Quarters by forwarding the names of the officers, and a request for a charter to the National Membership Coordinator,
