Springtime is here with the promise of a relaxing summer ahead, which means it’s a great time to think about preparing for the longest “summer” of your life—retirement! At CalSTRS, we know you do a lot for your students, but it’s important to take care of yourself and your future as well.

And we can help.

We offer several in-person and online group sessions designed to help you better understand your retirement no matter how far away it is.

Jumpstart your spring by attending these educational events:

• Spring Into Retirement With Pension2®: Learn how saving a little money today can pay off later. Even if you already have a retirement savings account, the CalSTRS Pension2 program may provide you with a larger retirement income.
• Remember Those You Love: Understand your options for leaving a lifetime monthly benefit and a one-time payment to your loved ones upon your death.
• Watch a Service Retirement Application Demonstration: If you’re nearing retirement, this event is for you. Learn how to fill out your retirement application with guidance from a CalSTRS benefits specialist.

Self-care is more than just bubble baths, riding your bike and spending time with family and friends. Start preparing for retirement today so you can relax a little more tomorrow.
