About Us
Finding Inspiration in Every Turn
The Golden Gate Commissioned Corps Officer Association (GGCOA) is a community of officers and supporters dedicated to advancing the mission, visibility, and camaraderie of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps in the Bay Area and beyond. We bring together health professionals, leaders, and advocates who are committed to protecting, promoting, and advancing the health and safety of our nation.
Our Story
The Golden Gate Commissioned Corps Association was formed by a dedicated group of U.S. Public Health Service officers seeking to strengthen professional connections and advance public health initiatives across the Bay Area. What began as informal gatherings quickly evolved into an organized association focused on service, mentorship, and collaboration. Today, we continue to honor that foundation by supporting officers, fostering professional development, and promoting the mission of the Commissioned Corps.
