American Gold Star Mothers Inc.
​Chapters and Departments

American Gold Star Mothers, Inc., is composed of local chapters and, in turn, departments (usually composed of all the chapters within a state).  Below is a complete list of all American Gold Star Mothers, Inc., departments and chapters. The listing is by state for convenience in finding a chapter near you. The city listed after the chapter name is only to give you a general idea where the chapter's members reside geographically. You need not live in that city. If you are anywhere close enough to a chapter to participate, you may join that chapter. 

If there is no chapter convenient to you, you may be assigned to the Grace Darling Seibold chapter, listed in DC. When there are enough members in an area to form a chapter, you will be reassigned to that chapter. A new chapter may be chartered with five members.  If you are interested in forming a new chapter in your area, contact the National Service Officer for more information. 

If a chapter or department has established their own website, a link to their website appears with their listing.  You can contact the president of a department or chapter by clicking on the link in the list below.  If you have any questions about membership, chapters or departments, please contact the National Service Officer at nso@americangoldstarmothers.org or our National Headquarters by phone at 202-265-0991.
