If you would like more information about an affiliate, or want them to contact you, please use the contact form on the bottom of the HOME page. Include your contact information and the web administrator will forward your request to the affiliate president of your choice. You can join the affiliate in the county where you taught, or where you live. You can even join more than one. Affiliate membership fees are very reasonable!
Your affiliate officers are your connection to the state organization, and attend board meetings throughout the year, bringing back valuable information about your pension, insurance, events, and legislative activity.
