Family caregivers in Nebraska and across the nation now have easier access to vital support, thanks to the expanded Caregiver Support Program from AARP and United Way Worldwide. This groundbreaking initiative connects caregivers to essential services for themselves and their loved ones through the 211 helpline.
AARP today announced three Nebraska organizations—Nebraska Investment Finance Authority (NIFA), Partners for Livable Omaha, and Project Houseworks—will receive 2025 Community Challenge grant funding. The grants are part of AARP’s $4.2 million commitment to fund 383 quick-action projects aimed at making communities more livable for people of all ages, with a focus on the needs of older adults. The funds will support efforts to improve public places, transportation, housing, digital connections, and other key areas.
Support is finally on the way for Nebraska’s 179,000 family caregivers with the newly passed Caregiver Tax Credit starting in the 2025 tax year. Find out if you may qualify with our short questionnaire.
