Prepare to Care: Finding Answers, Support & Local Resources

AARP Maine staff members and volunteers are pleased to return to four of Maine’s many LGBTQ pride festivals this year: in Hallowell (June 3), Lewiston (June 10), Portland (June 17) and Bangor (June 24). We hope you’ll find our table, say hello and learn about our work in your community, across the state and throughout the nation. We’ll have some free publications to share, including a new brochure about our priority issues in Maine and an updated version of Prepare to Care: A Planning Guide for Caregivers in the LGBTQ Community. At the Lewiston, Portland and Bangor festivals, we’ll also be offering a game you can play to test your knowledge about Social Security and receive our new “Celebrating Generations of Pride” tote bag or another AARP-branded item (while supplies last).  For a complete list of LGBTQ pride festivals across Maine this month, see below.

The hearing for LD 1964 on Paid Family Medical Leave takes place on 5/25/23. Read our online guide to better understand what the bill could mean for working family caregivers. You can help our efforts by sharing your own caregiver story, too.
