Dr. Duran Williams, TRTA Executive Director, reports that members have begun receiving the letter from Pension Benefit Information (PBI)--
Dr. Williams encourages members to read the PBI letters carefully and follow recommendations for remaining vigilant against identity theft and fraud. Continue to monitor the TCRS website for further information.
Communication from Bridget Dorse (Administrative Assistant, TCRS) on August 7, 2023, to Dr. Doran Williams (Executive Director, TRTA)--
This is the information and website links we are providing members.
The letters from PBI were mailed last week. TCRS has a FAQs document located at https://treasury.tn.gov/Portals/0/Documents/Retirement/PBIIncidentFAQ.pdf . Any updates related to the data security breach will be made to this document. We apologize for the unanticipated delay.
On our website there is also a link "Recovering from identify theft" ,https://consumer.ftc.gov/features/identity-theft , that provides steps you can take now to protect your identity.
One step you can take now is to freeze your credit with the 3 credit bureaus, Experian – (888)-397-3742, TransUnion – (888)-909-8872, and Equifax – (888)-298-0045. You can also request a free credit report at www.annualcreditreport.com and review to ensure no transactions are on your account that you did not authorize.
Retiring in 2017 after a decade of working for TEA, Dr. Williams returns to the fold following a stint with Lincoln Memorial University, promising, "I will work diligently to protect, and hopefully expand, our members retirement and insurance benefits."
While working for TEA, Dr. Williams served first as a UniServ coordinator, then as a statewide membership coordinator, and last as the assistant executive director for advocacy.
Married to a retired Pre-K teacher, he and his wife have three grown children, two of whom are also educators. Dr. Williams says that he is "honored to work and serve the current and future retired teachers across the state."
