Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are residential living units on the same lot as a single-family or primary dwelling. AARP Iowa is working to expand access to this housing option by championing a statewide ADU law that would give all Iowans the right to build an ADU on their property, reducing unnecessary regulations and red tape.
AARP Iowa works with community members and decision-makers to inform and enact positive change on the issues that affect all of us as we age. This includes health and independence, financial security and making our communities more livable for all Iowans.
AARP realizes that healthy habits, including exercise and eating right, can lead to a better, longer, happier life.

Scam artists have a shiny, new tool to take your hard-earned money, and while the nature of the scam remains consistent - often preying on our emotions or manufacturing a sense of urgency - the method of getting your money is evolving with technology. Instead of purchasing gift cards or transferring money through wire services, the use of crypto ATMs is on the rise, and they are popping up at convenience stores, gas stations and other high-traffic areas in your community.
