Summer in Central Washington brings more reasons to get out and about, whether that's a farmers market, a medical appointment, a senior center, or a shopping trip. For older adults who no longer drive or have limited transportation options, getting there can be a real challenge.

AACCW's Transportation Assistance program helps eligible older adults in Adams and Lincoln Counties get where they need to go, with personal assistance available for those with limited mobility.

If you or someone you know could use a ride, reach out to find out what's available: https://bit.ly/3K3M4Tt

7 in 10 Washingtonians will need long-term care at some point in their lives. For some, that need comes after an illness or injury. For others, it comes later in life. Either way, the cost of that care can be overwhelming. Most Washingtonians aren't prepared for it.

The WA Cares Fund changes that. By contributing a small amount from each paycheck while you're working, you earn access to long-term care benefits when you need them most. It's Washington's commitment to making sure everyone—not just those who can afford it—has support when the time comes.

Got time for a FAQ regarding the WA Cares Fund?

Many Washingtonians wonder if they're eligible to receive benefits—and we want to make sure you have the information you need.

Q: Who is eligible to receive WA Cares benefits?

A: To access your benefits, you need to meet two requirements. First, you must have contributed to the fund—most Washington workers who have contributed for at least three years have earned access to the full $36,500 benefit. If you were born before 1968, you may qualify for a pro-rated benefit even if you've contributed for less time. Second, you must have a care need—meaning you need help with at least three daily activities like bathing, eating, or managing medications, and expect to need that support for at least 90 days. Applications open statewide this month. Learn more at wacaresfund.wa.gov/apply

Farmers market season is here in Central Washington, which means fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables are back.

The Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) helps eligible older adults access that produce by providing benefits that can be used at participating farmers markets and farm stores throughout the region.

It’s a simple way to bring more fresh food into your routine while supporting local growers at the same time.
