Did you know that SPP members of all types and backgrounds can run for an elected position on the SPP Pension Board? The Board plays a big role in the oversight and governance of your pension plan. All Plan members benefit when the Board has committed, engaged and interested members to help shape the direction of the Plan’s priorities.

In this episode, we discuss the function and responsibilities of the Board and its members, why someone might want to join, and how to be nominated for an elected position.
