The Board of Pensions serves Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) congregations, agencies, and mid councils through the Benefits Plan of the PC(USA). The Board also works with a range of employers that are affiliated with the Church to provide benefits to their employees.
Affiliated employers are either under church control or have an association with the
PC(USA). They include Presbyterian schools and colleges, retirement communities, camps, and conference centers. Call the Board if you are interested in offering benefits to your employees through the Benefits Plan of the
PC(USA) but are not sure if you're an eligible employer.
Church employers are part of the PC(USA). This group includes congregations, which provide benefits to ministers and other staff members, as well as the six agencies, including the Board of Pensions, synods, and presbyteries. If a congregation has a nursery school, its staff might receive benefits.
Members of a congregation aren't eligible to participate in the Benefits Plan of the PC(USA), unless it is through their own employer.
