November is National Family Caregivers Month, and AARP New Jersey honors the 1.08 million family caregivers in the state who provide unpaid care and support to their loved ones.
The pandemic’s financial hit has made it hard for many people to pay their utility bills. After a strong advocacy campaign by AARP New Jersey, the Garden State has extended a moratorium on utility shutoffs for nonpayment.
AARP New Jersey has successfully advocated for the state’s more than 1 million unpaid family caregivers, including expanding support to those caring for loved ones exposed to or diagnosed with COVID-19.
