CUCRA Retiree Surveys

CUCRA periodically surveys University of California retirees about their activities, contributions, and accomplishments during retirement.

The survey results highlight the accomplishments and activities of those University of California retirees who responded and describes the extent to which respondents remained committed to UC's mission, volunteering in their communities and for UC, providing professional services, publishing written works, caregiving and more. For many of these retirees, retirement did not signal a break from the University, but rather a shift in the relationship.

• Assist UC retiree associations and retiree centers create and improve upon programs for retirees.
