Membership
The Utah Retired School Employees Association is a strong and vibrant organization in our state.  We believe we have much to offer and we invite you to renew or join our association.

We have an Annual Convention, usually late in September, a quarterly newsletter, and a two page publication about every other month to keep members current on issues and activities.  

New benefits are continually being added to meet your needs and interests. In addition to valuable discounts on hotels, cars, and vacations, you also have access to dental insurance, a vision plan, and many other great benefits!

Membership is only $12.00 per year which can be paid annually to our Secretary or the dues can be deducted from your retirement check at just $1.00 each month. Membership is from September 1 - August 31 the following year. Several choices are available for payment of URSEA dues. You can authorize the Teachers' Retirement System of Utah to deduct your URSEA dues from your retirement check monthly. You may cancel this authorization at any time by written request to the URSEA office.

Associate memberships in URSEA are available to actively employed teachers and other employees of the education community and to individuals who may be interested in supporting the causes of retired educators.

We hope you will renew or join with us.  It is a great opportunity for you to take advantage of the benefits offered, to enjoy the friendship of colleagues and new friends, and to participate in informative and enjoyable activities.
