AARP Rhode Island has launched an all-out effort to raise Caregiver awareness in Greater Newport. Volunteers are fanning out to distribute AARP’s “Prepare to Care” guide.
Additional activities include respite events for caregiver families and a future Caregiving conference.
We reaching out to businesses, schools, libraries, community centers, adult daycare facilities, places of worship and many more avenues.
You can join the Greater Newport Community Action Team and be a part of the success. Our goal is to eventually expand this volunteer-led, community-based outreach across the state. All we’re asking for is a few hours a month of your time. It’s important work and you will meet some great people.
Why is this issue important: Did you know there currently are some 134,000 family caregivers in the Ocean State? Because of our aging population, family Caregiving responsibilities will grow in the coming decades. We have to make sure families are prepared and aware of help that is available.
