Please feel free to browse our site to become familiar with the missions that the Civil Air Patrol serves to our community, state and nation as the Official Auxiliary of the United States Air Force.

CAP maintains both internal and external aerospace education programs. CAP members, both adults and cadets, follow a rigorous program to learn about aviation and aerospace principles. CAP also reaches out to the general public through a special program for teachers at all grade levels. Through this program, CAP provides free classroom materials and lesson plans for aerospace education and each year sponsors the premier national conference in this field

CAP cadet program trains young men and women in teamwork, moral leadership, aerospace education, technical skills to support emergency services, and military history and customs. Through national encampments, a college and flight training scholarship program, and the International Air Cadet Exchange, CAP cadets broaden their horizons, learn to assume responsibility, feel self-confidence and set goals for their lives.

Best known for its members work in search and rescue and disaster relief missions, CAP is expanding its role in the 21st century to include an increasing  number of homeland security operations and exercises. CAP also performs counter drug reconnaissance missions at the request of law enforcement agencies and can do radiological monitoring and damage assessment.
