Objectives. NYC Marines support the fundamental Marine Corps ethos of taking care of our own. This ethos applies to the “Whole Marine” principle, and includes Marines yet to be, Marines who are, and Marines who have gone before, summarized in our motto. To that end, the council executes its mission around three primary objectives:
1. Secure future Marines. This includes helping make Marines by supporting the recruiting effort, as well as supporting such activities as NROTC, MCJROTC and the Young Marines, and supporting activities that positively inform and educate the public about Marine Corps history, mission and capabilities.
2. Sustain current Marines. This includes helping sustain the Commandant’s priorities in general, and the mission and quality of life of the active-duty Marines stationed in the greater NYC area in particular, to include public affairs, recruiting, Reserve, and many other independent duty billets.
3. Support former Marines. This includes helping Marines who have honorably served become successful members of society, and keeping Marines actively involved with the Corps long after that transition.
