AARP Eye Center
SNAP is not just for households with children. It’s a federal program that offers assistance to adults of any age having a difficult time affording the food they need to maintain healthy lives. In Virginia, AARP is working to reach older people who may be eligible for these benefits and direct them to call 2-1-1 to sign up.
Rhon Williams remembers the day his father Jim called him last year and said, “I think I messed up. I lost $25,000.”
“I don’t think some people realize how much AARP does. I’m constantly letting people know in my social circle or at my church, or wherever I am. My red shirt means a whole lot.”
AARP continually stresses the need to destroy documents containing personal financial information.
When AARP Virginia volunteer Shannon Abell recently delivered one of his many fraud alert presentations, this one was far different than most, even if he was not aware until after he finished speaking.
