Today, 63 million Americans — including our own Virgin Islanders — step up as family caregivers, helping older parents, spouses, and other loved ones live independently at home rather than in costly nursing homes. These everyday heroes hold up a broken long-term care system, managing medications, preparing meals, helping with bathing and dressing, and more. In the Virgin Islands alone, family caregivers provide thousands of hours of care each year, worth an exceptional amount in unpaid labor.

On October 28, 2025, Troy de Chabert-Schuster proudly testified before the 36th Legislature's Committee on Health, Hospitals, and Human Services, championing important amendments to the Caregivers Leave Act (Bill No. 36-0086). This proposed legislation is an exciting step forward, ensuring that all full-time employees of the Government of the Virgin Islands, including those working with independent boards, commissions, and agencies, receive four hours of administrative leave every month to fulfill their essential caregiving responsibilities for a seriously ill spouse, child, parent, or any legal dependent.

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.
AARP stands with individuals with disabilities, their families, and caregivers in support of policies that promote independence, financial security, and quality of life. As an organization dedicated to empowering individuals as they age, AARP represents the interests of over 100 million Americans aged 50 and over, including the more than 22,000 members living here in the Virgin Islands. AARP urged the committee to act in favor for advancing the financial security for disabled Virgin Islanders and their families, by ultimately passing this legislation.
Technology is evolving fast but that doesn’t mean it’s leaving you behind. In fact, some of the most exciting innovations in artificial intelligence (AI) are designed to support people over 50 in living healthier, more connected, and more independent lives.
