NEPBA Announces Exclusive Voluntary Benefits Package for Members Through Colonial Life

Chelmsford, MA — August 1, 2025 — The New England Police Benevolent Association (NEPBA) is proud to announce an exciting new partnership with Colonial Life, delivering a suite of exclusive voluntary benefit options tailored specifically for NEPBA members and their families.

This member-first benefits package offers peace of mind and protection when the unexpected happens. Through this collaboration, NEPBA members can explore coverage options designed to safeguard their health, finances, and future, all with the convenience of automatic draft/EFT premium payments.

Available voluntary benefit options include (based on state availability):

  • Accident Insurance
  • Critical Illness Insurance
  • Dental Insurance
  • Disability Insurance*
  • Hospital Confinement (Medical Bridge) Insurance
  • Term Life Insurance
  • Whole Life Insurance

What sets this program apart is that most benefits are available with no health questions or medical underwriting during the program’s initial launch, making this a rare opportunity for members to access affordable, meaningful protection with ease.

To ensure every member gets the personalized guidance they need, Colonial Life benefits counselors will be onsite at key NEPBA locations across our region. Dates and times for these events will be announced soon. For those unable to attend in person, virtual support via phone or screen-share sessions will also be offered.

“We are always looking for ways to better serve our members, and this partnership with Colonial Life helps us do just that,” said Chris Ryan, NEPBA President. “By offering real protection with minimal barriers, we’re empowering officers and their families with financial security they can count on.”

NEPBA Executive Director Tom Turco added, “This new package of benefits is a direct reflection of our commitment to our members’ well-being, on the job and beyond. We encourage all members to explore the coverage options available and take advantage of this unique opportunity.”

Stay tuned for event dates and benefit enrollment information.

*NOTE: family coverage options are available for all Colonial Life plans except the disability insurance.
