Livable Communities

We applaud Governor Murphy for signing bipartisan legislation that will change Medicaid’s eligibility process, so seniors aren’t forced into nursing homes while waiting for Medicaid approval.

The 2024 AARP Community Challenge grant program is currently open and accepting applications through Wednesday, March 6, at 5:00 p.m. ET / 2:00 p.m. PT. The Community Challenge grant program is part of the nationwide AARP Livable Communities initiative, which helps cities, towns, villages and rural areas become great places to live for residents of all ages.

AARP Connecticut – advocates for age 50+ Connecticut residents and their families – works with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to support legislation and issues that make our state a great place to live for people of all ages.

We know that it takes time to build great communities. But we also believe that tangible improvements can spark long-term change. AARP launched the Community Challenge grant program in 2017 to fund projects that build momentum to improve livability nationwide. We are excited to announce the program is back in 2024 for its eighth year and is currently accepting applications online through March 6, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. ET / 2:00 p.m. PT.
