Livable Communities

Grant awards supports quick-action projects that make communities livable for people of all ages

By 2030, one out of every five people in the United States will be 65 or older. Will your community be livable for people of all ages and life stages?

AARP surveys consistently find that the vast majority of older adults want to reside in their current home or community for as long as possible. Doing so is possible if a community has housing options that are suitable for differing incomes, physical abilities, ages, & life stages. Tell us how you feel about the housing options in your community and learn more about Governor Healey's "Affordable Homes Act" housing bill and why AARP is urging 'bold action' on it.

This February, we recognize National Senior Independence Month. At AARP, we strive to create spaces where people of all ages can live independent, fulfilled lives. We are here to act as a wise friend and fierce defender for the 50+, and we aim to help you and your families feel confident, in control and secure as you age.
