Adelantar la política pública de envejecimiento activo de la Ley 121-2019 requiere propuestas legislativas integrales. Las medidas a continuación propulsadas por AARP buscan fortalecer la protección, el bienestar y la inclusión de las personas mayores. Entre las medidas propuestas se encuentra la creación de una ley para capacitar profesionales de la salud en geriatría y gerontología, así como enmiendas a la Carta de Derechos de los Adultos Mayores para garantizar mayor seguridad jurídica. Además, se impulsa la actualización de políticas sobre cuidado informal y seguridad financiera en el retiro, junto con programas de formación para cuidadores y jóvenes trabajadores. Estas propuestas también promueven igualdad en el desarrollo empresarial, mejoran la accesibilidad en servicios públicos y fomentan el aprendizaje a través de toda la vida. En conjunto, estas acciones reflejan un compromiso por construir un Puerto Rico más justo, inclusivo y preparado, en donde todos podamos alcanzar nuestros anhelos, no importa la edad.
