TIAA-CREF has introduced a new participant website for all RCUH employees participating in the TIAA-CREF Group Retirement Plan.  If you have not viewed your individual account online (“My TIAA-CREF”) I encourage you to do so.  This new website provides extensive information, better navigation, and easier to understand displays.  Visit your online account page to see the new look and features.

In addition, TIAA-CREF will be launching a new “Communication, Education & Advice” (CE&A) Program.  This CE&A Program is focused on Financial Management and Education.  This free program will include online information, printed information, one-to-one meetings, use of social media and workshops.  This CE&A Program is scheduled to begin in July/August 2012.  You’ll be receiving updates on the launch of the CE&A Program directly from TIAA-CREF.
