As Sun City grew, so grew its influence in the Valley of the Sun.  SCHOA expanded its activities to direct the voice of the community.  Then, as the West Valley burgeoned and Sun City’s importance in county thinking dwindled, SCHOA again redirected its strength toward protecting our community from being overrun by this growth. 

Note how these diverse activities fit within the following Mission Statement, developed years ago by the Board of Directors to both direct and limit SCHOA’s efforts:

Mission Statement

1. Assist members with problems they bring to our attention concerning their homes and grounds;

2.  Create and/or support programs which benefit the entire community, specifically regarding its safety, security, quality of life, and property values;

3. Serve as advocate for Sun City residents with county and state officials on matters affecting all residents;

4. In the absence of a recognized political entity, to represent Sun City as a community in political and inter-governmental activities in the West Valley, and to earn the respect of leaders there; and

5. Generate sufficient income to carry out and support SCHOA programs.
