Board of Trustees
The TCDRS Board of Trustees provides leadership for the system, which serves more than 294,000 TCDRS members and retirees. Our independent, nine-member board is comprised of system members and retirees appointed by the governor and confirmed by the Texas Senate.
TCDRS trustees serve staggered six-year terms and have oversight of all system operations, including the annual budget, policy determination, legislative proposals and investment policy.
The board appoints a director to manage the day-to-day operations of TCDRS and an investment officer to oversee TCDRS investments.
