AARP is launching a nationwide movement, I Am A Caregiver. To many lawmakers, America’s millions of caregivers are invisible. Yet, these family caregivers hold up a broken long-term care system, which is why AARP is looking for your help.
On behalf of our nearly 300,000 members across Philadelphia and all those 50-plus who call Philadelphia ‘home,’ we applaud the Mayor and members of City Council for agreeing on a budget that advances affordable housing and safe streets initiatives, along with programs and services that will help every Philadelphian live and age well in their homes and communities. As the local advocate in Philadelphia, our AARP Philadelphia Age-Friendly and Livable Communities Action Plan supports the efforts of our neighborhoods, towns, and cities to be great places for people of all ages.
Every day, millions of Americans lose their hard-earned money to identity theft and other types of scams. Last year alone, 16.7 million people from communities across the nation lost $17 billion to identity fraud alone. That’s one person victimized every two seconds!
As scams and fraud accelerate, AARP Maryland and others will showcase the latest trends and tips during Protect Week, to be held June 16-20. About 20 partners — including law enforcement and state officials — are involved.
This June we’re focusing the important information you need to know about to be able to spot and stop scams. Join us on June 17 for one of our FREE ice cream events for resources and conversation about how to stop criminal scammers and protect yourself and your loved ones! And, the free cone is on us!
