With nearly 2.5 million members in Texas, AARP Texas strengthens communities and advocates for what matters most to older Texans and their families, including health security, financial stability and personal fulfillment.
AARP Texas has collaborated with Texas Appleseed, a nonprofit advocacy organization, to produce a tool kit for financial caregivers who manage money or property for loved ones unable to do so themselves. “Managing Someone Else’s Money in Texas” includes six guides tailored to people serving in specific roles, such as agents under a power of attorney and court-appointed guardians. The kit also includes a fraud-fighting guide to help prevent elder financial abuse.
