About SDCERS

SDCERS offers a comprehensive range of services to our members, including appointments with our Retirement Counselors to discuss pension benefit options or entry into DROP. Members may also request forms, obtain their account balance, and confirm their beneficiary on file by contacting our Call Center. To set up an appointment with a Retirement Counselor, please first submit your service retirement, DROP entry, or DROP exit application online via your Member Portal account; after you have done so, an SDCERS representative will contact you to schedule your appointment. To schedule an appointment regarding a disability retirement application or to contact our Call Center for any other reason, please call (619) 525-3600, or toll free at (800) 774-4977. Our Call Center is generally open on regular business days from 9:00 a.m. to noon, and 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. PST.

SDCERS Board Schedule

The SDCERS Board of Administration meets six times a year, approximately every eight weeks, on each scheduled Friday at 8:30 a.m. PST. Meetings are held in SDCERS' Board Room on the 3rd floor at 401 West A Street, Suite 300, San Diego, CA 92101. The meeting schedule is reset each January and you can see future dates and times of Board and Committee meetings on our Calendar, towards the bottom of the home page, or by downloading the current year's meeting schedule available on this page. You can also sign up for electronic notices regarding SDCERS Board and Committee meetings on this page.

Fiscal Year Priorities and Action Plan

Each year, SDCERS’ Board of Administration and staff leadership agree on a set of top priorities that support our Mission Statement, Vision Statement, and Core Values. In turn, the SDCERS Leadership Team develops a list of action plans to support those top priorities. These action plans are typically above and beyond the regular daily business conducted by staff, and some items may take more than one year to complete. The number of priorities and supporting action plan items in any given year is based on the needs of the organization, the Board of Administration, and SDCERS participants. You can view previous years' top priorities in the action plans below, as well as the end-of-year results of each action plan.
