Step 1: Are you enrolled in the Retired Teachers Chapter?
SHIP is available only to UFT members enrolled in the Retired Teachers Chapter (RTC). If you haven't joined the RTC already, enrollment is a two-step process:
- Sign up as a user on the UFT website. If you already have an account on the UFT website, you can skip this step.
