We often refer to unpaid family caregivers as Wisconsin’s unsung heroes, flying under the radar while providing vital care that allows their loved ones to continue living in their homes and communities as long as possible.

During the 2025 legislative session, AARP Wisconsin will push lawmakers to pass a state tax credit of up to $500 to help offset expenses—such as adult day care, assistive technology or home modifications—that family caregivers incur.
We know how impactful $1,000 can be. This is our way of extending some seed money to get these projects off the ground. Apply for this round of funding by October 15th, 2024

Madison, Wisconsin, like many cities across the United States, is grappling with a housing crisis that affects residents across the socioeconomic spectrum. One promising solution lies in the development of “missing middle housing,” a term popularized by architect Daniel Parolek to describe a range of multi-unit or clustered housing types that are compatible in scale with single-family homes.
