On April 15, 2026, the Orange County Employees Retirement System (OCERS) celebrated the groundbreaking of its future headquarters in Santa Ana, marking a significant milestone in the organization’s history.

The Replacement Headquarters Project reflects OCERS’ long-term commitment to serving its more than 55,000 members, retirees, beneficiaries, and participating employers. The new building is designed to support the organization’s evolving operational needs; it will provide a modern, sustainable, and collaborative workplace that enhances service delivery and positions OCERS for continued success in the decades ahead.

The groundbreaking ceremony brought together members of the Board of Retirement, executive leadership, staff, project partners, participating employers, and community leaders to commemorate the occasion. The event celebrated not only the start of construction but also a shared vision for OCERS’s future and its mission to provide retirement security for those it serves.

OCERS extends its gratitude to all who have contributed to the planning, design, and development of this transformative project. As construction moves forward, the organization looks forward to bringing this vision to life and creating a facility that will support its mission for generations to come.
