Keeping Oregonians informed, engaged and active
As of November 1, 2025, millions of Americans—including many older adults—may not receive their monthly food benefits through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) due to the ongoing federal government shutdown. This disruption affects individuals living on fixed incomes, many of whom rely on SNAP to afford groceries and maintain their health.

The 2025 Age-Friendly Oregon Summit brought together policy makers, advocates for older adults and people with disability, livability and intergenerational advocates, and diverse Oregonians interested in making Oregon a great place for people of all ages and abilities.
No matter where you are in the caregiver journey, these local agencies and organizations can help make the process easier
It usually starts small – perhaps running a few errands or preparing some meals. Maybe you don’t even see yourself as a caregiver yet. Sometime the changes can be sudden and dramatic. But as your loved ones age, they may need more help. And, perhaps you will too. A little planning ahead can make a big difference in your life. Join AARP Oregon and community partners for upcoming educational forums to help maximize future independence and quality of life.
