AARP Washington

Come have lunch with us and find out what AARP means in your community. Former weatherman, family caregiver and AARP volunteer Stu Seibel hosts the program, along with AARP State Director Marguerite Ro.

AARP Washington is pleased to announce the appointment of Seattle resident Brenda Charles-Edwards to its statewide Executive Council. The AARP Washington Executive Council is a volunteer leadership committee that helps set the Association’s strategic direction and activities on behalf of nearly 900,000 members in the state.

With nearly 900,000 members here in Washington state and more than 38 million members nationwide, AARP is sure to ring a bell with most Washington adults. However, with an organization of this size, AARP means many different things to many different people. As the volunteer president of AARP, I'd like to take this opportunity to tell you a little bit more about our organization and to provide you with some helpful contacts.

The need for family caregivers continues to rise in Washington, as the state contends with an aging population and a shortage of home care workers.

Washington's "Caring for Caregivers" video podcast series features discussions with local experts, community leaders, and caregivers just like you on a range of topics to help you along your caregiving journey.

AARP surveys consistently find that older adults want to remain in their current homes and communities for as long as possible. But our needs can change as we age, and most houses and apartments are designed for young, able-bodied adults and don’t meet the needs of older residents or people with disabilities.

Caring for a family member or close friend is one of the most important roles you’ll play. It may start with driving your loved one to get groceries or to the doctor. Later, you may take more time off from work, prepare meals, or handle bills. No matter where you are in the journey of family caregiving, having a good framework to help guide you and your loved one will make the process easier.
