Retired! What does that mean?

"The Ability To Do What I Want When I Want."

RPEA has worked for public service retirees since 1969 as NY's only public retirement advocacy organization. RPEA is a not-for-profit entity that has represented the interests of nearly 500,000 retirees, their spouses, and beneficiaries from NY state and local governments, school districts, and public authorities.

We do not represent those still employed, nor do we have affiliations with political parties or candidates, financially or otherwise.

We work for you.
