If you’re joining our union, you should expect more than just insurance.

Members of local unions, please call your local office first.

 

Associate Membership Program members, call the Member Service Department at (800) 222-3827.

 

While we welcome emails on workplace and membership issues to info@texasaft.org, a call to your local union or AMP regional office will get a more timely response.

Let’s answer the biggest question first:

Yes, Texas AFT offers $8 million in Occupational Liability Insurance (OLI). But there’s more to our union than insurance.

 

When you join our union — either through one of our local unions or our Associate Membership Program — you join a union family of more than 66,000 educators and school employees in K-12 and higher education. You also join the ranks of the 1.7 million members of our national affiliate, the American Federation of Teachers, and the 12.5 million-member AFL-CIO. That means something.

As professionals and as union members, it’s critical we understand our rights as employees in the workplace.

We offer the more concrete benefits you would expect from a union. Every member of Texas AFT, regardless of district or area, gets coverage.

We know professional development is a top priority for educators. We have several programs to help you improve your work life.

Texas AFT membership grants you access to all benefits offered by our national affiliate. This includes student debt relief, life insurance, discounts, and more.

We’re entering an era that will likely bring more extreme weather and natural disasters that will affect our members and the communities they serve. We must be prepared.
