General Information

Within the limits of CGMA policies as described in the Coast Guard Mutual Assistance Manual, when verified, documented and justified, assistance may be considered for eligible clients to assist them with meeting the needs listed below. 

 

While it is not possible to describe every type of case, this non-inclusive list contains the most common needs facing our clients.

 

There are situations where CGMA assistance is not appropriate (see:General Information Concerning Assistance and Unauthorized Items).   However, due to the nature of casework, it is not feasible to anticipate all possible situations that can occur. There will be times an exception to normal CGMA policy may be justified. 

 

Contact your local Coast Guard Mutual Assistance Representative for additional information.
