WAEPA Expands Associate Membership to Include More Federal Family Members
Worldwide Assurance for Employees of Public Agencies (WAEPA) has expanded its Associate Membership eligibility, allowing adult children, parents, and parents-in-law of current and former civilian federal employees to apply. Previously limited to spouses only, the new policy enables these family members to access up to $1.5 million in Group Term Life Insurance coverage along with other member benefits such as financial planning services and scholarship programs. This change follows a recent bylaw update approved by WAEPA's Board of Directors and is part of its long-standing mission to support the federal community through exclusive insurance products designed for financial security. The expanded eligibility took effect on August 1, 2026, allowing eligible individuals immediate access to apply. WAEPA has served over 50,000 members since its founding and continues to focus on providing portable life insurance coverage that remains in place regardless of employment status or other major life changes.
