ABOUT US

Welcome to the Dearborn County Retired Teachers Association website. We are an organized group of retired teachers who have taught in the United States and currently live in and around the Dearborn County, Indiana area. The Association is an affiliate of the Indiana Retired Teachers Association (IRTA) and the National Retired Teachers Association (NRTA).

The Dearborn County Retired Teachers Association (DCRTA) was formed in 1973 under the leadership of E. L. Morrison. Our association is composed of retired teachers and administrators, active teachers, spouses, and friends of education.

The purpose of the association is...

(1) to promote the welfare of retired teachers through support of legislation concerning teachers’ pensions and retirement benefits.

(2) to encourage and perpetuate education.

(3) to provide community leadership, service, and guidance.

(4) to assist active teachers with retirement information.

(5) to keep the local membership current on COLA information and IRTA benefits and services.
