SURS and SUAA?  What's the Difference?

SURS (State Universities Retirement System) administers benefits for the "public employee retirement system that provides retirement, survivor, disability, and death benefits for employees of Illinois state universities, community colleges, and certain other affiliated organizations and agencies."  www.surs.org

SUAA (State Universities Annuitants Association) advocates for the protection of these benefits. SUAA is not a union. In addition, SUAA works closely with SURS to educate employees about benefit changes resulting from recent legislation.  www.suaa.org
