To attend one of the virtual Members Only Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Clinics, you must pre-register here: http://go.aft.org/StudentDebtClinicRSVP. From the “student debt clinic” drop down menu, please select the UUP clinic that you are interested in attending – they are labeled “UUP [Virtual Student Debt Clinic] [date] [time].” In the affiliate field, type in the full name of our local (United University Professions), and it will autofill after a few keystrokes.

Registration is first-come, first-serve, and we must cap attendance for a single clinic at 125 participants to ensure that we are able to provide maximum assistance to attendees. Registration will close 48 hours prior to the virtual clinic.

***UUP’s popular monthly Pre-Retirement Workshops are scheduled for December 15th and December 17th, 2025.***

The part 1 workshop will take place on Monday, December 15, 2025, at 12:00pm which will cover Healthcare/Medicare.

The part 2 workshop will take place on Wednesday, December 17, 2025, at 12:00pm which will cover union benefits (dental & vision)

You may take these workshops as many times as you like as the information is rather complex especially with Medicare and feel free to have your spouse/partner attend with you.  Also, you can take these two workshops in any order as they don’t depend on each other. For this and other UUP programing information go to the UUP Events Calendar  https://uupinfo.org/calendar/

You will need to register for the workshops, and a Zoom link is sent the day before the workshop to the email address that you register under.
