About AROHE
The Association of Retirement Organizations in Higher Education (AROHE) is an outgrowth of 15 years of
informal development as the "International Conference on Retirement in Higher Education." At a meeting held
in Raleigh, North Carolina, in 2001, it was agreed that our organization has matured sufficiently to merit formal
status. AROHE was officially incorporated as a nonprofit member association in March of 2002, and an AROHE Office has
been established.
We believe with confidence that there is an important role for AROHE and that our programs of support for
faculty and staff retirees will benefit from international communication. We believe, moreover, that our roles in
support of our respective universities will be strengthened as a result of this organization.
We hope you will join other well-known universities and consider membership in AROHE.
Start-up and Development Kit
AROHE has prepared a "Start-up and Development Kit" to guide individuals who seek to set up
faculty or staff retirement organizations at their host institutions. The Kit summarizes the experiences of members
of successful retiree groups and presents guidance on how to begin and maintain a retiree organization. Included in
the document are sample by-laws, strategic plans, and histories of active organizations.
Individuals or organizations desiring a copy of the "Start-up and Development Kit" should contact
Janette Brown at jcbrown@usc.edu or write to her at:
