Our MOSERS Month campaign happens annually in April and is a month-long initiative dedicated to educating our members about their MOSERS benefits.

This year, we hosted the third annual campaign, and the theme was Pension Possible! Each week, we took members on adventurous missions with Special Agent Ben E. Fits to learn more about their MOSERS benefits.

This was our first year including retirees in one of the weeks and we hope to continue to expand MOSERS Month to include all members next year!

Some key takeaways from MOSERS Month 2023 were significant increases in the number of members who:

• Viewed their Annual Benefit Statements this year
• Submitted a Designation of Agent form
• Completed an Authorization to Release Information form

All three of these documents are important tools. Your Annual Benefit Statement provides a summary of all your benefits through MOSERS. The Designation of Agent form allows you to tell us who you want to manage your MOSERS benefits if you become incapacitated. The Authorization to Release of Information form gives us permission from you to talk with or send information about your benefits to another person or entity. They are all elements of planning for a smooth retirement.
