  Join us on Monday Oct. 19, 9:00 am for a hike to Escondido Falls sponsored by the UCLA Retirees Association. This is a moderately challenging 3.5 mile out and back trail in a Malibu canyon which will probably take 2-2.5 hours.
  After beginning the hike up through neighborhood streets, we'll walk downhill into the canyon encountering several shallow creek crossings. There may also be some muddy sections due to water crossings. (we chose to do this hike before the rainy season begins on purpose). At the end of the canyon we'll get to see a waterfall and a small pool. (FYI, the return to the parking area is uphill and then down.)

  Escondido Falls is about 150ft high and is one of the tallest in SoCal.  A lot of the trail is without shade-so be sure to bring sunscreen, a hat, water and a snack.  Attendance is limited to 20 hikers.

  You will need to provide an emergency contact and their cell phone number for yourself and any guest you bring along when you register to attend this hike.

  Further information will be emailed to the registrants a few days in advance of the hike.

  The UCLA Emeriti Association and the UCLA Retirees Association (UCLARA) are both all-volunteer organizations that represent the interests of UCLA's retired faculty/staff and plan programs for their members.

  NOTE

  Tour of the Japanese American National Museum

  As the national repository of Japanese American history, JANM creates groundbreaking historical and arts exhibitions, educational public programs, award-winning documentaries, and innovative curriculum that illuminate the stories and the rich cultural heritage of people of Japanese ancestry in the United States. JANM also speaks out when diversity, individual dignity and social justice are undermined, vigilantly sharing the hard-fought lessons accrued from this history. Its underlying purpose is to transform lives, create a more just America and, ultimately, a better world. 
  

  Our 1 hour, docent led tour of the Museum will be led by a community member.  The tour (~75 minutes with arrivals, introductions, and the tour) includes a presentation about the museum's history and origins, a walkthrough of the new core exhibition on the first floor (including a slideshow showing artist renditions, plus any items that have already been installed), and a tour of the second floor areas (including the Education Center, Temporary Galleries, Hirasaki National Resource Center, and more). 

  The new core exhibition, In the Future We Call Now: Realities of Racism, Forging Democracy, will fill the newly redesigned galleries, where space was gained from former office, hallway, and library spaces as well as the existing Weingart galleries.

  Note that the Museum is not yet open to the public (due in Jan. 2027), so we will have a great preview of the new exhibition and the new areas of the Museum before the public.

  NOTE-This is the 2nd tour of JANM we are offering. Same date-10.23.2026 BUT at 2pm.  Space is limited for this tour.  Our afternoon tour begins at 2pm at the entrance to the JANM. Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in.

  Further information will be sent via email to those who register; so please make sure your email address is accurate.

  Visit the JANM at www.janm.org for more information.

  Open Enrollment is the annual opportunity for University of California retirees to review, update, or make changes to their benefits for the upcoming calendar year. If you do not make changes during Open Enrollment, your current health coverage will generally continue into the next plan year; however, your premiums and out-of-pocket costs may change.

  The UCLA Emeriti/Retirees Relations Center (ERRC) invites you to join one of our virtual Open Enrollment Help Desk sessions with a UCLA Health Care Facilitator. These sessions are offered in a live Zoom Q&A format during the Open Enrollment period and are designed to answer your remaining questions after reviewing the Open Enrollment materials.

  Before attending, participants are strongly encouraged to watch the pre-recorded 2026 UCLA Retiree Open Enrollment Highlights presentation, which provides a comprehensive overview of this year’s benefits, important updates, and enrollment information. A link to the video will be provided with your registration confirmation. Reviewing the presentation in advance will help make the Help Desk sessions more productive and allow the facilitator to focus on answering your specific questions.

  Please note: The UCLA Health Care Facilitator (HCF) assists with escalated medical, dental, and vision plan issues that have not been resolved through your health plan or other appropriate resources. The HCF is not the first point of contact for questions regarding retiree checks, plan premiums, enrollment, eligibility, or coverage. For those matters, please contact the Retirement Administration Service Center (RASC) at 800-888-8267 or log in to UCRAYS for assistance.

  Registration is required. Please register for only one Help Desk session so that as many retirees as possible have the opportunity to participate.

  If you are unable to attend this session, you may register for one of the following Zoom Help Desk sessions 

  • Tuesday, November 10, 2026 | 11:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m.
