April brings new opportunities to get involved and give back. As the legislative session moves forward, AARP Florida is focused on advocating for older adults, supporting volunteers making a difference, and helping you stay ahead of evolving scams. Stay connected with us this month for the latest updates, resources, and ways to make an impact in your community.
At AARP Florida, we know the power of volunteers to drive meaningful change in communities across the state. Each day, our volunteers embody passion, leadership, and a deep commitment to making life better for Floridians 50+. And now, it’s time once again to recognize one extraordinary individual with our highest volunteer honor.
Florida Power & Light (FPL) is proposing an increase that will impact many Floridians, especially seniors on fixed incomes. This proposal raises the minimum base bill for residential customers from $25 to $30—forcing them to pay more regardless of their actual energy usage.
Each week, we focus on you through gentle morning yoga and meditation classes. We hope to give you the (virtual) space to center your mind and body so that you’re ready to tackle everything life throws your way.
Caring for a loved one? Do you need some time to recharge and use your creative side? Caregivers are an important community resource who help their older parents, spouses, and other loved ones age at home—where they want to be!
Adrian Allotey takes socializing seriously. In addition to seeing family and friends, she signs up for regular dinners with six other people—all strangers—in her Middlesex County community.
In a year of economic uncertainty, we recognize that many are rethinking budget priorities. This includes revisiting the Washington State biannual budget. While hard decisions are being made, AARP Washington strongly urges that any analysis and decisions consider the potential impact on our state’s most vulnerable populations, including older adults.
AARP Delaware wants people to have more choices as to how they live as they age, and to age with dignity and independence. Better health and social connectedness are key priorities that can make that happen.
