About

Consider us your unofficial HR, but better! We work for you!

In the year 2008, a group of individuals with over 100 years of combined experience with financial services decided to create an organization that has a “Service-First” approach. We began by becoming federal benefits specialists and helping them with their benefits at no cost. In 2017 we took our experience helping federal employees and made the same services available to non-federal workers which we call the “private sector.” Then in 2018, The Strother Group, Inc was established and operates with the following DBAs: Federal Employee Service Association (FESA), Eagle Care Health Solutions, Employee Services-HR, and American Family Benefits Association. 

We believe in the old saying “what goes around comes around”. By helping people at no cost they then listen to our retirement income planning philosophy that “we are living longer and must have a guaranteed income stream we cannot outlive”. The fixed-indexed annuity is uniquely built to offer a guaranteed income that you cannot outlive.

Throughout the years, we have treated all people we come in contact with as our customers, supplying them with quality services. As an example, one of our newest free services is Social Security Maximization. Highly trained individuals supported by sophisticated software are available to make Social Security claiming a “peace-of-mind experience”. An individual can receive hundreds of thousands of dollars and sometimes millions of dollars from their Social Security benefits. It is very important that decisions are made that maximize their income stream.

Whether we are working with Social Security, pensions, or IRA’s we begin with a free service of making sure you understand your benefits. Human Resource departments work for companies, but we work for YOU! The difference is far reaching and our approach produces a high level of satisfaction for our customers.

Why did we start with Federal Employees?
Over the years the federal government has decreased the funding for their human resources department causing the staff to shrink but the workload continues to grow. This creates difficulty for federal employees to get answers to questions regarding their pay, benefits, and financial options at retirement.

FESA has been assisting federal employees with their benefits for a decade. We make sure federal employees:

- understand all the codes on their pay stub.
- ensure they do not waste money on benefits they do not need.
- understand how their benefits work now and how they will change at retirement.
- and, provide services in retirement income planning so they get the largest retirement check while paying the least amount in taxes.

How do we do this?
FESA has benefits specialists from coast-to-coast of the United States. We provide FREE personal benefits analysis across the entire country. Our personal benefits analysis goes in depth with your specific situation. We meet one-on-one with you and go over many different topics: FEGLI, Medicare, Military Buy Back, CSRS, FERS, Social Security, and TSP.

Our organization is dedicated to helping federal employees live well and retire successfully. When federal employees understand their benefits, and use them wisely they have peace-of-mind. FESA is growing at a steady pace. With this growth, we have been able to accomplish more and have a larger impact upon our members. Our goal is to support the members of the Federal community in their time of need and work towards a greater good. Our organization serves people of all races, creeds, and religions. We do not discriminate. We merely support America’s workforce and serve as a trusted friend.
