As increasing numbers of grandchildren rely on grandparents for the security of a home, their grandparents are taking on more of the responsibility for raising them in a tough economy — many with work challenges of their own. For these grandparents, raising another family wasn't part of the plan. But they step up to the plate when their loved ones need them.

AARP California invites you to participate in a Financial Planning Day taking place in a city near you and planned in our state from October 10th through November 7th.

STATEMENT OF AARP CALIFORNIA STATE DIRECTOR NANCY McPHERSON:

Very few people have had as much impact in shaping California as Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo. Vallejo was born in Monterey in 1807, when that city was the capital of Alta California in the Viceroy of New Spain. As a young man, Vallejo worked as a clerk for English merchant William Hartnell, learning English, French, and Latin. Vallejo was serving as personal secretary to the Governor of California, Luis Arguello in 1821, when news of Mexico’s independence from Spain reached Monterey. He then enrolled as a cadet at the Presidio of San Francisco.

Did you know that trash is public property? According to a 1988 Supreme Court ruling, anyone has the right to go through your trash without your permission. A bit scary, don’t you think?
