Retired Member Benefits

Retirement may seem remote, but forethought should be given to this subject. It is our earnest wish that one and all will attain a regular retiremen, but unfortunately, retirement occasionally arrives sooner than expected through service or non-service connected disability.

Regardless of how you retire, except for deferred retirement, continued membership is available in the Sheriffs' Relief Association. Retirement dues are payable by pension check deduction. Current benefits are the same as regular members except that disability and supplemental benefits are not available.

After ten years of Sheriffs' Relief Association membership, a buckle of plaque, suitably inscribed, is presented at the time of retirement. Spousal benefits (loans, emergency assistance, etc.) have been made available on an individual basis, even after the death of the primary member.

The Sheriffs' Relief Association remains your link with the Department you served. Our counsel and expertise is always available to retired members and their families.
