Mission Statement

The goal of the Mendocino County Employees' Retirement Association (MCERA) is to provide member services in a confidential, professional, competent and approachable manner.  Those services include:

• Providing retirement compensation, death and disability benefits to County retirees and their beneficiaries.

• Providing assistance to County employees in planning for their retirement.

• Preserving and maintaining the assets of the system through prudent investment of employee and employer contributions, while maintaining a sound funded status for the system.

We hope that our website will provide valuable information in achieving our goal, and we can assure you that we will continue to improve the site over time to best meet member needs.
