Lincoln 403b Information and Resources
Actively planning for retirement is an important step in achieving a financially secure future. The DOW Benefits Committee, assisted by an independent consultant, performed an extensive review of the 403(b) annuity based plan available via the Diocese of Winona. We are pleased to announce that we enhanced our retirement plan by changing our 403(b) offering to a mutual fund based plan with our provider, Lincoln Financial Group. The name of the new plan is the Lincoln Alliance® Program; the change was implemented April 1, 2010.
