-Oppose legislation which adversely affects member retirement and health benefit programs;

-Foster public recognition and appreciation of government service;

-Cooperate with other organizations seeking to accomplish similar legislative goals;

-Inform members about legislative issues that impact their lives, primarily retirement income, health care benefits, taxation and COLAs;

-Strengthen the political influence of current and future federal retirees through NARFE-PAC, a political action committee;

-Work in partnership with the Office of Personnel Management to answer questions related to retirement benefits, and

-Contribute to the well being of local communities through volunteer service
