AARP is working to educate members about benefits that are too often overlooked, such as property tax credits.
Family caregivers do remarkable things every day to care for their loved ones. We help with bathing and dressing, meal preparation, managing finances, transportation, grocery shopping, and so much more. There are more than 820,000 of us in Washington state performing this great labor of love – but it’s not without its challenges. It can be stressful and time consuming - and it can also feel incredibly isolating at times. Some of us might feel like we’re in it all on our own.
Are you or your loved one facing challenges paying for Medicare costs? There’s help for that. You may be eligible for a program that could save you more than $2,100 a year.
AARP is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that empowers people to choose how they live as they age. We're advocating for what is important to our members and giving you a voice at the state and federal levels.
