ARTA

ARTA is the only organization in Arkansas dedicated exclusively to protecting and promoting
the interests of retired public school personnel.

We represent the interests of all public school retirees by:

​

•      working closely with other organizations to protect and enhance current and future retirement benefits;

•      advocating for improved health insurance coverage at affordable rates for active and retired school  
       employees;

•      providing information and services to help retirees live safe, healthy and independent lives;

•      providing opportunities for retirees to remain personally and professionally active.

​

While all public school retirees ultimately benefit from these efforts, ARTA members also receive the following benefits:

​

•      cost-effective membership in a professional organization;

•      invitations to educational meetings and programs, including an annual convention;

•      subscription to the INTERLINK quarterly newsletter;

•      networking, service and leadership opportunities;

•      custom travel opportunities at affordable price points;

•      consultations with our endorsed insurance providers; group discounts on select products;

•      a representative voice at meetings of legislators, policy-makers, and other organizations with similar  
       membership interests.

​

Members and their guests are invited to participate in safe, affordable trips custom designed for ARTA.
