For many, Christmastime is the happiest part of the year. And a very important part of the season’s celebrations is, of course, FOOD!!!! We all want to relish in our most local and typical dishes. Not only sweets, but the entire gamut of our local rich cuisine.
For that reason, I picked a simple recipe to share with AARP; one that is not only Crucian, but Caribbean (ESPECIALLY Jamaican) and Puerto Rican! It’s SALTFISH FRITTERS. Hope you enjoy it and have a wonderful Christmas season!!!!
Building great communities takes time – but small, tangible improvements can spark lasting change. That’s the idea behind the AARP Community Challenge, a grant program launched in 2017 to support quick-action projects that enhance livability nationwide.
AARP State Director gave testimony to the Ohio House Finance Committee asking for the inclusion of a state tax credit for family caregivers.
Heartbreak and loss come in many forms. It may be the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a major life transition, or a moment when life simply did not unfold as expected. Whatever the cause, grief is a deeply human experience that affects more than our emotions. It reaches into our physical health, our mental clarity, and our sense of meaning.
AARP's nationwide movement, I Am A Caregiver, now represents nearly 63 million Americans, including 2.2 million Ohio caregivers. 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.
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.
