In 1957, the California Correctional Officers Association (CCOA) was formed with members from each adult institution. Almost immediately, law enforcement officers from the California Youth Authority, Youth and Adult Paroles, and Medical Technical Assistants, began to inquire about membership.

CCOA, Bargaining Unit 6, was renamed the California Correctional Peace Officers Association (CCPOA) to more closely encompass the entire unit which consisted of all peace officer personnel in the Department of Corrections and the Youth Authority. ...
• The union consists of individual chapters; each institution in the state is a chapter. From their local membership, each chapter sits on the CCPOA State Board of Directors. The state board and its delegates in turn elect a state president and other state officers, which make up the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee is responsible to the State Board of Directors, which in turn is responsible to the entire membership of CCPOA.
