AARP Ohio

AARP is working to improve the lives of all Ohioans.
Enter the AARP Ohio Celebrates Social Security: Cincinnati Reds VIP Ceremonial First Pitch Sweepstakes by August 1 for a chance to win an unforgettable day for two at the Great American Ball Park.
Since 1935, Social Security has helped older Americans live and retire with dignity, supported people with disabilities, and provided vital income to families after the loss of a loved one. While it has never missed a payment, Social Security has its challenges.
AARP Ohio and NBC4 want to celebrate caregivers. Tell us your story for the chance to recognize them on TV as an Every Day Hero.
Eleven communities across Ohio are getting a boost in their work to become more livable for residents of all ages.
Scammers turn up the heat when the weather gets hot.
Are you interested in making an impact in the lives of older adults? AARP Ohio wants volunteers to amplify the voices of people age 50+ and share resources to support older adults where they live. AARP volunteers help Ohioans thrive in communities across the state.
Today I joined volunteers and staff from Ohio headed to Washington to advocate on behalf of AARP members and all older Americans on the crucial issues of Family Caregiving and Social Security. While meeting with members of Congress, we carried these crucial asks:
In the past year alone one-quarter of Ohioans 18 and older have had their personal information exposed to identity theft and fraud. And our latest research shows that older Americans are scammed out of about $3 billion every single year. Making sure that all Ohioans are not only aware of the latest fraud schemes, but are also armed with the tools and resources to prevent and recover from fraud is the goal of our AARP Fraud Watch Network. So I was pleased to represent AARP last week when the Ohio Attorney General’s Office held a press conference to launch “Ohio Protects”, a new multi-media outreach initiative to increase Ohioans’ awareness of the most common scams, fraud, and identity theft and how they can protect themselves.
