As the AARP DC Volunteer State President, I am proud to represent 68,000 AARP members in the District, and on behalf of them and all older District residents, we are advocating for a budget that honors their dignity and needs. For the District’s FY2026 budget, our message is clear: District seniors deserve their fair share of the pie.
This summer marks the 90th anniversary of Social Security—one of the most important and effective programs in American history. Since 1935, it has been a lifeline for millions of Americans, providing critical financial support and peace of mind after a lifetime of hard work.
Looking for a fun, informative, and family-friendly outing this summer? Join AARP Florida at the Museum of Discovery and Science for a day of exploration, entertainment, and valuable resources.
Coconut Grove, a historic neighborhood in Miami-Dade County, is home to one of this year’s AARP Community Challenge Grant winners: Friends of the Commodore Trail. This five-and-a-half-mile nature trail has been a popular place for walking, biking, and socializing. However, it’s also much more to the community – this trail connects 13 parks and 12 schools, is a wildlife corridor, and gives neighbors a way to meet each other.
