VSEA members should have received an email recently, informing you that it is once again open enrollment time for VSEA members who are not currently enrolled in your union’s very popular Northeast Delta Dental Supplemental Program. The VSEA supplemental program is designed to enhance your current State-provided dental insurance benefit. 

This enrollment period is also when members already in the program can amend their number of dependents also using the program, if this number has changed in the past year.

The deadline to enroll in the supplemental dental plan, or amend your current plan, is Friday, May 14, 2021.  

If you are currently enrolled in the plan but are not making any changes, you do not have to do anything.

International Workers Memorial Day Is April 28. This year especially, fighting back against a terrible pandemic, thousands of frontline public workers have tragically died while providing critical health services to Americans or while directly monitoring or working with at-risk populations.

VSEA remembers these workers and all before them who made the ultimate sacrifice while doing their job, or as a result of their job.

VSEA members continue to identify workplace safety and health as a primary issue for their union to forcefully address.
