Your Association Is Ready To Help
OREA’s mission is to improve the quality of life for its members through legislative accomplishments and a comprehensive package of excellent member benefits. These benefits are made available by reputable companies carefully selected for their ability to serve retired educators.
OREA values every member, and understands that the organization’s ability to accomplish its goals depends on achieving optimal membership among the 60,000 retired educators currently receiving benefits from the Teachers’ Retirement System. OREA also seeks the membership of active age 45+ educators whose interests are the same as those already retired.
OREA is a welcoming organization. If not already a member, please join us today!
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. OREA works tirelessly in the Oklahoma legislature to protect your future pension benefits. An experienced lobbyist, paid by OREA, provides legislative representation, proposes legislation, obtains sponsors and testifies on behalf of OREA 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 OREA 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 OREA also includes access to news updates, OREA events, chapter organizations, and the ability to talk to a live person about your membership benefits or any of OREA's activities.
With so many advantages to membership, at such a reasonable cost, it’s time to join your association.
