November is not only National Veterans Month but also National Family Caregivers Month, a time to recognize and thank the more than 40 million family caregivers in the U.S. This November, we should honor and pay respect to both: those who served our country in uniform and the hidden heroes caring for our veterans at home.
AARP Kansas is looking for virtual advocates to join our team to fight for the issues that residents 50-plus care about, including health care, affordable utilities and livable communities.
