The purpose of Learning Disabilities Awareness Month is not just to highlight these issues, but also to disseminate information and bolster support for individuals facing learning challenges.

October is Guardianship Awareness Month

This Guardianship Awareness Month, we take the time to highlight the essential role of guardians. They bear the significant responsibility of making decisions for individuals who cannot advocate for themselves, while upholding their dignity, safety, and well-being.

This month also serves as a valuable opportunity to reflect on and communicate your wishes regarding future medical care, especially in situations where you may be unable to express those wishes later on. In planning ahead, you can prepare for your healthcare needs and ensure that your values and beliefs are honored during times of serious illness or crisis.

October is Long Term Care Planning Month!

Long-Term Care Planning Month aims to raise awareness among older adults and caregivers about potential cost of healthcare as they age. Nearly 70% of adults 65 or older will eventually need some form of long term care.

Long-term care can include activities like grooming, dressing, eating, bathing, meal preparation, and other activities of daily living. Most retirement savings and insurance plans do not cover many aspects of long-term care. Starting to save earlier can help you live your best life for longer!

To start planning for your future today, visit us at www.aacounty.org/aging-and-disabilities or call us at 410- 222-4257 TTY call 7-1-1
