Allen Retired Association (AREA) is affiliated with the Texas Retired Teachers Association (TRTA). Active membership in TRTA is open to any retired public-school employee or anyone who supports public education employees. TRTA is the only statewide organization in Texas that works exclusively for retired public school and higher education personnel at the legislative level to maintain or improve benefits to all retirees. TRTA is the largest organization of its kind in the United States.

Membership in AREA is open to anyone who would like to join.

AREA offers numerous opportunities for volunteer service and fellowship. We usually meet the third Monday from August through May. Meetings include lunch, entertainment, informative programs and friendly fellowship. Projects include scholarships, grants, children's book project and volunteering, to name a few.

Members can be as involved as they have the time and inclination to be! Please consider joining us to meet up with old friends and make new ones!
