Leaders in Health Care Programs for Retirees

The New England Association of Labor Retirees, Inc. (NEALR) was incorporated in 1995 as a non-profit association in the state of Rhode Island.

The goals of NEALR Are:

To negotiate and develop cost savings benefits, such as eye care, dental, prescription drugs and Medicare insurance plans for ALL labor retirees in New England.

To provide a forum for labor retirees to come together to discuss common interests in health care
To establish a framework for community action
To maintain a forum for communication among labor retirees

Over the past decade several health care programs have been established to provide cost savings that has benefited labor retirees. In the process linkages have been developed among labor retiree chapter leaders, organized labor and both State and Federal political leaders.
NEALR health care programs are open to all labor retirees and their spouses. These programs are primarily discounts for the cost of services with each retiree being eligible through his or her retiree chapter or the HealthLink Project.

HealthLink is an ongoing wellness program that operates under the auspices of NEALR, Roger Williams Medical Center and Boston University.

The HealthLink Program has received the endorsement of the Rhode Island AFL/CIO, which has been instrumental in promoting HealthLink among labor union retirees throughout southern New England.

It epitomizes all the primary goals of NEALR - Through community resource partnerships and community activism a forum is established for the betterment of the retirees and their spouses.
