UC Davis Retiree Centerspacespace

Welcome!

The UC Davis Retiree Center appreciates the importance of retired staff and faculty to the university, and their status as lifelong members of the UC Davis family. We facilitate programs and provide services and referrals to benefit all retired employees.

The Retiree Center was founded in 2006. We are still developing new programs as we discover the ways in which we can best serve our retirees, so please let us know if you would like to see any additional activities or services.

Programs and Services

We currently provide the following programs and services to retirees, and employees preparing for retirement, at the UC Davis and UC Davis Health System locations:

  • Serving as a Campus Connection
    We serve as an official unit representing the needs of retirees to the campus. 
  • Supporting the work of the Emeriti and Retirees’ Associations
    We provide support to the Emeriti and Retirees’ Associations, both of which provide educational programs and advocate for retirees at both the university and state levels. Monthly luncheon seminars focus on university happenings as well as retiree issues. The Emeriti Association’s living history project preserves the insights of retired faculty on DVD.
  • Planning Social/Educational Programs
    We plan a variety of social and educational programs for our retirees. Social activities such as the fall Oktoberfest, the winter Wine Tasting and the spring Steak Bake give you the opportunity to reconnect with colleagues. Educational programs such as benefits presentations keep you abreast of important issues.
  • Connecting Retirees with Campus Volunteer Opportunities
    Retirees can serve the Center by joining our advisory committee or assisting with events or administrative tasks. Our website contains links to volunteer opportunities across the UC Davis campus and the UC Davis Health System.
  • Providing Information and Referrals
    We provide information and referrals to professional resources. Our website contains links to many local and national governmental resources such as Medicare and Social Security, as well as a variety of community agencies.
  • Assisting with Pre-Retirement Planning
    We coordinate with other offices at both the UC Davis campus and the health system campus to provide and publicize pre-retirement planning and counseling programs for current employees.
