Learn More About UC s Voluntary Retirement Plans, Financial Wellness Resources

America Saves Week (Feb. 26 – March 3) is an annual opportunity for individuals to assess their savings and take financial action. In addition to saving for retirement via the state retirement systems (OPERS, STRS, ARP), we encourage employees to consider saving additional dollars through UC’s voluntary retirement savings plans — the 403(b) or 457. Both plans provide the opportunity to save pre-tax dollars reducing your federal and state taxes as well as building your retirement nest egg. Learn more about
