Public Affairs is the Marketing and Public Information program of the Coast Guard Auxiliary. Through Public Affairs the public learns about our public outreach programs – Public Education and Vessel Safety Checks. Each Flotilla needs an effective Public Affairs program to be successful in these programs and to grow their membership. Through Public Affairs as well as through the other outreach programs, flotillas find new members who volunteer to improve our performance and to replace us as we retire or move on.
