TEDPA RETINST, INC. is a not-for-profit corporation formed under the auspices of Techiman Diocesan Priests Association (TEDPA) to collaborate with the Catholic Diocese of Techiman to provide for the needs of her priests in their retirement and periods of infirmities/incapacitation. More than 90% of these priests, now 50 in number, serve people, without pay or any form of remuneration, in some of the most deprived areas in Ghana. A scheme to take care of them in their retirement and infirmities is, thus, an imperative and has been set up. It is this scheme which TEDPA RETINST, INC. has been formed to support and to ensure its sustainability. It is situated in the city of Yonkers in Westchester County in the State of New York.
