Welfare Trust Fund Benefits

The H.H.H.T.A. Welfare Trust Fund was established in 1979 to provide benefits programs for union members.  It is separate from the Teachers’ Association and has its own charter, administrator, trustees, financial accounts and legal counsel.  In 1996, the Trust Fund took over the District’s Dental Program.  This is the only Welfare Trust Plan that provides benefits for district employees who may not be H.H.H.T.A. members (administrators, managerial personnel, confidential clericals, etc).  The other plans administered by the Trust Fund are; Life Insurance, Excess Major Medical, and Long Term Disability.   

We are currently updating our Teacher Benefit information card and booklets which we will send you in January.  We strongly recommend that you update your personal information with our office (499-4240) so that our records are accurate.  Please let us know if any of the following changes apply to you:  name – new covered family members marital status – address and phone numbers – beneficiaries. Notifying the School District of changes does not change your status with the plans we administer and your coverage could be delayed.

You will  receive an updated Dental Plan booklet in January.  Please keep it in a safe place, as a reference, for dental benefits and coverages. 

Wishing you a Happy & Healthy Holiday Season
