ABOUT SCOA

SCOA is one of the oldest volunteer bodies in Australia. From modest beginnings in NSW in 1922, it has evolved as a not-for-profit national organisation principally financed by member fees and donations.

Branch representatives meet as a Federal Council twice yearly to determine SCOA policies and priorities. A Canberra-based National Secretariat, supported by volunteers, provides advocacy and representational services and information to members and also supports the work of all SCOA Branches and the Federal Council.

Volunteers provide assistance for fellow members and their partners on a range of matters. They operate through branches in all States and in the ACT.

A quarterly national newsletter, SuperTime, reports on a range of matters and is mailed or e-mailed to members free of charge. Most branches also mail out local newsletters to their members reporting on local issues.
