Why Join NGAC?

The National Guard Association of California (NGAC) is the only professional organization in California that serves exclusively to help California National Guard constituents.  Members gain access to a wide range of benefits including advocacy efforts, enhanced insurance and discount products, networking opportunities, and more. 

NGAC serves as your voice and advocate on public policy issues that impact California Guard members and their families. The National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS) (http://www.ngaus.org/index.asp)  and the Enlisted Association of the National Guard of the United States (EANGUS) (http://www.memberconnections.com/eangus/)  serve as your voice and advocate on federal issues.

NGAC is a Not-for-Profit 501 (c) 19 Veterans Organization organized to provide benefits for CA Guard members and families. It also serves as the collective voice of all California Guard officers and enlisted personnel.

NGAC receives no government or private funding for the programs in which we are involved.  We derive our funds strictly from charitable donations from individuals and corporations, life insurance commissions, and our annual membership drive.  If you would like to help or make a tax deductable donation, our federal tax ID is 94-1547549
