The Retired Players Association is dedicated to providing powerful national advocacy and collegial support for retired professional football players, their families and the community at large. The RPA’s specific area of focus is to raise awareness and funding in support of medical research in the areas of Alzheimer’s and ALS, particularly as it relates to repeated head trauma. The RPA provides financial assistance for members suffering from these illnesses. Additionally, the RPA lobbies nationally for more comprehensive medical benefits for retired athletes.
