Retired Organizing

The NEOEA-R Organizing Committee will promote the welfare of retired members of NEOEA by identifying particular concerns of retired members as topics for training workshops and social opportunities, by serving as a link between northeastern Ohio retired members and those in other districts, and by fostering communication with OEA-R.
