“The age wave is here,” says Cathleen MacCaul, Senior Advocacy Director at AARP Washington. “By 2030, more Washingtonians will be age 65 and older than under 18. That demographic shift will impact every part of our economy—from health care to housing to gaps in our long term care workforce.”

Medicare can be confusing—whether you're approaching retirement, supporting a loved one, or navigating Open Enrollment.
AARP 2015 State Legislative Session Priorities
By AARP State President Mike Tucker
AARP is proud to sponsor this year’s Seattle/King County Remote Area Medical Clinic. Free dental vision and medical services will be provided from October 23 – October 26 at KeyArena at Seattle Center.
Last year, 12.6 million Americans were the victims of identity theft – that is one person victimized every 3 seconds. That is why AARP and BECU invite you to bring old documents containing your personal information to our mobile shredding truck for free disposal on October 18.
Medicare Open Enrollment is just around the corner. Beneficiaries can make changes to their Medicare Part D (prescription drugs) and Medicare Advantage plans from October 15 – December 7. But while it’s open enrollment for beneficiaries, it’s also unfortunately open season for con-artists hoping to steal your personal and financial information. In fact, American’s lose more than 60 billion dollars each year to Medicare fraud.

Millions of Californians are adding a job skill to their “life résumé” – that of family caregiver. Often they are assisting their loved ones so they can stay at home, but AARP surveys say that they often don’t know where to turn for help. These family caregivers have a huge responsibility, but are often unaware of the critical resources and support available to them and how to cope with the challenges that come with being a caregiver.
