Oklahoma has enacted the Elder Exploitation and Abuse Act, a groundbreaking law aimed at protecting vulnerable adults from financial, physical, and emotional abuse. Effective November 1, 2025, this legislation empowers victims and their legal representatives to pursue civil claims against abusers, including caretakers. The law allows for the recovery of punitive damages, attorney fees, and court-ordered access to records.
To support the more than 490,000 family caregivers across Oklahoma, AARP Oklahoma and local partner organizations are inviting caregivers to attend the 2025 Oklahoma Family Caregiver Conference on November 6 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
AARP Oklahoma Native American Elder Honors honorees connect and ground us to our past, keep us mindfully present, and inspire future generations to become better curators of communities and cultures. We are privileged to share their inspiring stories and applaud their many achievements as they strengthen their communities and serve others. Honorees embody AARP's mission and, through example, motivate others to follow suit and selflessly serve their communities. These are the 2021 honorees.
AARP Oklahoma issued official statements regarding Oklahoma Corporation Commission administrative law judges’ recent recommendations on Public Service of Oklahoma (PSO) and Oklahoma Gas & Electric’s (OG&E) recent requests to raise utility costs. AARP Oklahoma believes the recommendations will negatively impact PSO and OG&E customers and put further financial pressure on older Oklahomans on fixed incomes. Recent polling indicates older Oklahomans share in those concerns.
Forty-seven Native American elders from 23 Oklahoma tribal nations were recognized virtually at the 13th annual AARP Oklahoma Indian Elder Honors event on November 12, 2021. Honorees were selected based on their achievements, community service and impact.
