Local 1180 Retiree Division

Local 1180 invites all 1180 retirees to participate in the many programs of its Retiree Division. The Retiree Division is located at 97 Hudson Street in lower Manhattan, right around the corner from the 1180 office at 6 Harrison Street.

“We do it all”

That's the slogan of the Retiree Division, and once you see our calendar of programs, you will agree. We have classes, workshops, benefits and health information, clubs and other activities. We have a lending library. We provide appointments with our health advocate and pension counselor. Whether it's yoga classes or legal advice you want, you can turn to the Retiree Division to get it. Learn the Internet, or French, or study African-American literature; get information on nutrition or managing your finances; join us for theater trips or excursions and tours.

For Local 1180 retirees who have left the Big Apple for the warmer climates of Florida, we hold an annual Florida retirees conference.

You can reach the Retiree Division at 212-226-5800, or if you are calling from outside New York City, 800-801-2882. The division sends regular mailings about its programs to all 1180 retirees, but you can always call if you want the latest news or have a question. If you live in New York, stop by and see us!

A benefit for the physical and emotional health of retirees

The Retiree Division is a benefit provided through the Local 1180 Retiree Benefits Fund. It was created in 1996 to help promote the physical and emotional health of retirees through the provision of services, creative activities and social events. It proved an instant success and has become not only a regular part of hundreds of 1180 retirees' lives, but also a living testament to how vital retirees are in the life of the union.
