It’s money that could help cover utilities, rent, health care, and prescription drugs. Sean Voskuhl, Oklahoma State Director for the AARP, talks about those federally funded programs that go unused every year.
But that’s not all. Voskuhl said in most states, the Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program is also available.
