Connections

ASURA is one of a large group of university retiree associations. ASURA works with colleagues at other universities on issues of common interest.

ASURA maintains connections with other retirement organizations to share ideas, information, and programs.

There is an annual meeting of representatives from the ASU, NAU, and UofA retirees associations, held at ASU because of its central location. The primary purpose of the meeting is to assure that there is  consistency in messages from the three organizations to the Arizona State Legislature and to the state retirement agencies and health insurance programs. A representative of the Arizona State Retirement System typically attends this meeting, to share information and to receive feedback from the associations. The meetings usually also offer the opportunity to discuss ideas for keeping the organizations relevant and healthy.
