Attorney General Raúl Labrador issued a consumer alert last week, warning Idahoans on the text/call/email scam that claims recipients have missed jury duty and if they don’t immediately pay a fine, they could be arrested by local authorities or subject to even greater costs and penalties. As with many scams, criminals depend on a person’s law-abiding nature to scare them into making a payment, often through a link or QR code.

Local experts from around Idaho will describe current scams taking place and how to stay protected.
AARP Idaho announced a new initiative to enlist poll workers of all ages this November, working in collaboration with the Association of Young Americans (AYA), Power the Polls, and New Leaders Council (NLC). The groups aim to enlist more poll workers to ensure that in-person voting is still an accessible and safe option this fall.
In addition to the three original recipients, AARP Idaho has announced another three Gem State organizations will receive 2020 Community Challenge grants. Grantees will implement “quick-action” projects to create more livable communities across Idaho. To date AARP Idaho has awarded more than $63,000 across the state to help make communities more livable for people of all ages.
AARP Idaho has selected Gini Woodward of Bonners Ferry to receive the 2020 Andrus Award for Community Service. This represents the Association’s most prestigious and visible state volunteer award for community service. The award is a symbol of the power of individuals to make a difference in the lives of others and at the heart of everything AARP does.
AARP Idaho is urging state legislators to oppose legislative draft RS28049, a proposal that would grant immunity to nursing homes and other long-term care facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Three Idaho organizations will receive 2020 Community Challenge grants – part of the largest number of grantees to date with more than $2.4 million awarded among 184 organizations nationwide. Grantees will implement “quick-action” projects to create more livable communities across all 50 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
