Issues the organization keeps tabs on involve utilities, landline phones, and healthcare. AARP CT programs include Driver Safety, Tax Aide, hosting Decide Create Share workshops, and Fraud Watch.

Kathy Null will present and will bring another AARP volunteer to help answer questions. Materials will include information about resources available to senior citizens, AARP program materials that describe programs details, and other AARP-produced informational literature.

This is a non-profit, non-political event.
