Your Association Is Ready To Help
All individuals who are participants in Colorado PERA are eligible and highly encouraged to join CSPERA, Colorado School and Public Employees Retirement Association.
Whether you are just entering the field, been working 15 years, or getting ready to retire, you can reap the advantage of being a member of CSPERA.
The number one reason why you should join CSPERA is because you want your PERA funds to be protected when you decide to draw your pension funds. A portion of your dues goes to SECURE PERA, the Colorado Coalition for Retirement Security; this coalition endorses candidates and legislation that protect the PERA Defined Benefit Plan.
Pension Protection
We're the organization guarding your retirement income from legislative changes that could reduce your pension. We've been fighting for years, and this is no time to stop. Pensions could be questioned here and all over the country at any time.
Together, we can defend pensions. CSPERA works tirelessly in the Colorado legislature to protect your future pension benefits. An experienced lobbyist, paid by CSPERA, provides legislative representation, proposes legislation, obtains sponsors and testifies on behalf of CSPERA members at legislative committee meetings.
Access To Benefits
When you retire, you often lose benefits such as dental, vision, and other insurance. Your state benefits, and even Medicare, might not cover you in these areas. In fact, there's no out-of-pocket maximum.
The good news? Your membership gives you access to a wide range of quality insurance plans. As a member, you'll enjoy access to policies designed to protect your medical and financial well-being--everything from life insurance to Medicare supplement plans. And, thanks to our strength in numbers, you can enroll in the coverage you need at discounted group rates.
Social Opportunities
Looking forward to meeting others and socializing again? Join CSPERA now and be ready for future opportunities like nights out with friends old and new, group travel, volunteering, and more. And that's just the beginning. You'll be invited to meetings and other events that will keep you connected to like-minded people.
Research shows that social connection is critical to our mental, physical and emotional health. That's reason alone to join. Become a member today and be among friends.
Plus Many Other Reasons To Join
Membership in CSPERA also includes access to news updates, CSPERA events, chapter organizations, and the ability to talk to a live person about your membership benefits or any of CSPERA's activities.
With so many advantages to membership, at such a reasonable cost, it’s time to join your association.
