About Us
TCDRS is a non-profit public trust providing pension, disability and death benefits for the eligible employees of participating counties
and districts. It was established by legislative act in 1967 under authority of Article XVI of the Texas Constitution and began operations
on Jan. 1, 1968. The TCDRS Act (Subtitle F, Title 8, Texas Government Code) is the basis for TCDRS administration.
In creating TCDRS, the Texas Legislature intended to provide a retirement program that pays pension and related benefits to qualifying
employees of member counties and districts. Each county and district electing to be a part of TCDRS is treated as an individual retirement plan.
TCDRS collectively administers all plans in accordance with state and federal law and invests their pooled assets.
