Join us October 12 for a webinar on the WA Cares Fund!

Join us October 12 for a webinar on the state’s new long-term care benefit, the WA Cares Fund

Washington state is the first in the nation to develop a way to make long-term care affordable for all workers in the state as we age: the WA Cares Fund. Workers contribute up to $0.58 per $100 of earnings starting January 2022. Benefits would start January 2025, with up to $36,500 in long-term care services and supports. It is a lot like Social Security—everyone pays so that everyone who needs this benefit can access it. 

We have heard from a number of constituents expressing concern and confusion about the program, so we are inviting you to a webinar to learn about how the program works and get your questions answered.

Please join us for a WA Cares Fund webinar on Tuesday, October 12, at 6 p.m.!

Rep. Entenman will be joined by guest panelists WA Cares Program Director Ben Veghte and AARP Washington Advocacy Director Cathy MacCaul. You can participate in this webinar via Zoom. Click the link to register for the event (and yes, you can register day-of, even if it has already started!).

We hope to see you there!
