AARP has been working to promote the health and well-being of older Americans for more than 60 years.

In the face of the COVID-19 outbreak, AARP is providing information and resources to help older people and those caring for them protect themselves from the virus and prevent it from spreading to others.

As part of those efforts, AARP Indiana is hosting a tele-town hall with members from across the state to discuss the critical importance of broadband access and telemedicine for Hoosiers during the current health crisis.

AARP State Director Sarah Waddle, Lt. Gov. Suzanne Couch, Dr. Jennifer Sullivan, secretary of Indiana’s Family and Social Services Administration, and Scott Rudd, director of Indiana Broadband, will join the call and take questions.

The session is set for 1 to 2 p.m. Wednesday. To listen, call 877-229-8493 and enter the pin 114577 or visit facebook.com/aarpindiana.

Questions to be asked are reserved for AARP Indiana members on the call.
