Savings Possible Thanks to the Prescription Drug Law Championed by AARP
The Ocean State is one of 20 that have passed laws creating state-facilitated retirement savings programs to help workers build their nest eggs.
Accessory dwelling units, such as backyard cottages or in-law suites, are often touted as a good housing option for older adults who want to age in place.
For the first time since AARP began publishing the Scorecard in 2011, more than half of Medicaid long-term care dollars nationwide for older adults and people with physical disabilities went to home- and community-based services instead of nursing homes and other institutions.
A plan for all Rhode Islanders workers to save for retirement
Published in the March, 2023 AARP Bulletin
In the upcoming legislative session, AARP Rhode Island will advocate for the creation of a retirement program that would be managed in a public-private partnership between the state government and the private sector.
AARP Rhode Island is raising awareness of the benefits of ADUs, making it easier to permit units and expanding the state's age-friendly, accessible, and affordable housing.
