Welcome to PSEA-Retired Eastern Region including Berks, Carbon, Lehigh, Northampton and Schuylkill Counties. Membership in our organization is open to all retired school employees; teachers, paraprofessionals, support staff and administrators.

Our goal is to present a forum that keeps members informed of issues such as health care, COLA and relevant legislation, educational issues and other areas of concern to retirees. We provide a social aspect with breakfast and luncheon meetings and other learning and travel activities. As former school employees, we continue to work on behalf of issues that affect our children and public schools.
