LAFRA provides a Life & Accident Insurance Benefit


The Life & Accident Fund provides life insurance and a permanent disability benefit for Relief members. The coverage begins the day


you sign-up for it (you must enroll before you’re off probation). Upon the death of a member in good standing, the beneficiary will receive a $12,000 death benefit. Additional benefits include a $6,000 permanent disability benefit and a $6,000 mental disability benefit. After 20 years of paying the assessment, you may withdraw the total amount paid, plus 7% simple interest or you can keep the benefit


in force with no further payment. Life & Accident participation requires an assessment of $5 per month ($2.50 per paycheck). For more information about these LAFRA benefits, call (323) 259-5200 or e-mail memberservices@lafra.org.
