Protect Yourself and Your Family

  1. Get financial tips like the importance of purchasing life insurance when you are younger through the Financial Learning Center, provided by NYSUT Member Benefits free of charge for NYSUT members.
  2. Teachers who are scheduled to go under anesthesia, no matter how minor the procedure, should consider submitting an application for Disability Retirement to protect your beneficiaries. As soon as your procedure is complete, you can revoke the request. This cannot get done in a day, so take care of it as soon as you schedule the procedure. Contact Brian Reilly for more information.
