Caregiving

Are candidates listening to voters 50+? Do they understand their concerns?

AARP advocates on policy issues that matter most to Maryland residents age 50 and over and their families. In our state legislative advocacy efforts, we rely on our hundreds of volunteers and more than 800,000 members across Maryland.

November is National Family Caregivers Month, and AARP Mississippi is planning a series of events for residents who fill this key role.

AARP North Carolina is working to make it easier for residents to get advance directives in place on how they want to be cared for during a serious illness.

AARP Hawaii is seeking volunteers to bolster outreach and advocacy for the state’s older residents, who face high prescription drug prices and other pressures.

Offering programs and support to the Bay State’s 840,000 family caregivers is a top priority for AARP Massachusetts.

During the AARP Mississippi Cares Conference, we will recognize a family caregiver. Family caregivers provide unpaid help to loved ones and/or friends. Their contributions are invaluable. We invite you to nominate a family caregiver.

Join us for a FREE special night of laughs for family caregivers featuring comedian and caregiver himself, Jesus Trejo. As seen in his latest comedy special, “STAY AT HOME SON,” Trejo is no stranger to the rewards and challenges of caring for loved ones. His take on the lighter side of family is relatable, informative, and most importantly, hilarious.

In a recent AARP survey, 86 percent of Hoosiers ranked staying in their own homes as they get older as their top issue when it comes to independent living.
