Headquartered in Washington, DC, NARFE sponsors and supports legislation and administrative regulations beneficial to present and future federal civilian retirees; it vigorously opposes those which would be detrimental. Nearly 350,000 NARFE members are organized into more than 1700 chapters and 53 state and territorial federations throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, Guam, the US Virgin Islands, Panama, Okinawa and the Philippines.

Through NARFE-PAC, the Association's powerful Political Action Committee, NARFE enjoys considerable influence. As a national service project, NARFE has collected well over $7,000,000 for Alzheimer's research.

SERVICE OFFICERS

NARFE sponsors Service Officers who are dedicated and experienced volunteer members who have been appointed to serve at state and chapter levels. These Service Officers can: help in the taking of proper actions to obtain and retain annuities and survivor, health and federal group life insurance benefits; assist with problems involving programs managed by OPM; help expedite paper work for such items as death benefits, change in marital status and federal income tax withholding; and help obtain information about programs of other agencies such as social security, veterans administration and other services for senior citizens.

YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

NARFE's effectiveness in fighting unfavorable changes in the civil service system is directly dependent upon the size and unity of its national membership. We need to recognize, as a political fact of life, our elected government representatives generally understand and respond to numbers, unity of purpose and PAC donations. Personal complacency is something we can no longer afford.

MEMBERSHIP

Membership is open to any person who is or will be eligible to receive an annuity or a survivor annuity from any agency of the Federal or DC governments including Retirees, Employees, Former Employees, Spouses and surviving spouses of persons eligible to join NARFE. The wrong impression that NARFE is solely for retired federal employees has prevented many concerned workers from joining the one organization that is devoted exclusively to protecting your present and future retirement annuities and benefits.
