As we step into a new month, it’s the perfect time to stay informed about the pressing issues and opportunities that could impact your life and community. This month brings a wealth of important updates, particularly for older Floridians, as the 2025 Florida Legislative Session kicks off.
AARP Florida has unveiled its 2025 legislative priorities, focusing on accessible and affordable housing for all ages, enhancing long-term services and supports, and boosting consumer protections.
AARP Florida invites local eligible non-profit organizations and governments across the country to apply for the 2025 AARP Community Challenge grant program, now through March 5, 2025, at 5 p.m. Eastern.
AARP Florida’s Executive Council is pleased to announce the appointment of two new volunteers, Kip Corriveau and Frank Wells, who bring a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to their new roles.
Floridians, we need your help! We need you to help us educate state and federal candidates about the health and long-term care technologies needs that will benefit Floridians of all ages.
Technology and new services can help make our communities more livable for people of any age – including innovations like ride-sharing businesses that offer not only new mobility options for older people but also a way to supplement incomes. That's what aging experts shared recently with 80 Sarasota residents at a recent roundtable.
Long-term care is a pressing issue in the Sunshine State. Nearly 2.7 million family caregivers provide 2.5 billion hours of unpaid services annually to help their aging loved ones continue to live at home rather than placing them in nursing homes.
