About the Trust

The Portland School District No. 1 Health and Welfare Trust, regularly referred to as “the Trust” was established in 1972 to provide group health and welfare benefits to employees of Portland Public Schools (PPS). Active employees and early retirees of PPS who are members of the PAT, PFSP, DCU or ATU bargaining groups can compare health benefit options, access and print useful booklets and forms, and stay updated on current union and benefit news. This site is also a valuable resource for information and tools to help you improve your overall wellness.
