W H E T H E R Y O U A R E retiring in a few weeks or years from now, there are reasons you'll want to continue your membership in CTA and NEA. CTA/NEA-Retired is the active and robust branch of CTA/NEA that belongs to our retired educators. As a retired member you continue to stay connected, be protected and enjoy the benefits you had as a CTA/NEA Active member. Retired members offer invaluable perspectives and institutional knowledge. They provide a strong voice for education retirees in California and the nation, promoting the interests of retirees by working to set policy that will affect current educators into the future. We represent retirees on CTA's State Council of Education and nationally on the NEA Board of Directors and at the Representative Assembly. S T A Y C O N N E C T E D & H A V E F U N The CTA/NEA Retiree Advocate newsletter, published quarterly and available on the CTA/NEA-Retired webpage (cta.org/retired), keeps members up to date on the activ- ities, issues and accomplishments of the state organization and its local chapters. Local CTA/NEA-Retired chapters offer opportunities for members to socialize with former col- leagues and make new friends (e.g., interesting informative speakers, happy hours, museum tours, movie nights, con- certs, etc.). When there is an interest, our local chapters provide opportunities to become involved in elections and legislative campaigns at the local, state and national level. Staying connected includes visiting our webpage and Face- book page (facebook.com/ctanearetired).
