The Chicago Teachers’ Pension Fund can help secure your future if you suffer from a permanent disability and are no longer able to work. This brochure outlines the options provided for a duty disability or disability retirement pension.

The Chicago Teachers’ Pension Fund (CTPF) offers two types of disability benefits:

• Duty disability benefit: available for contributors who become permanently incapacitated for duty while under age 65. The disability must be the result of injuries sustained or a hazardous condition encountered in the performance or in the scope of one’s duties, and not the result of the contributor’s own negligence.
• Disability retirement pension: available for contributors with at least 10 years of service credit.
