TRTA & Cy-FARE Membership
Your membership matters! We need you!
​
Membership means you have a voice when it comes to your retirement benefits, including a much needed Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for education retirees, in addition to ensuring the Texas Legislature continues to support our defined benefit (pension). Your membership helps leverage the influence retirees have with legislators, leveraging our strong, united voice to ensure legislative promises for education retirees are kept and that retiree pensions remain sound for past, current, and future educators and other school personnel.
Cy-FARE offers great fellowship and fun!
