The vital lifeline for tens of millions of Americans everywhere, including 84,150 here in the District, used for housing, groceries, gas, and the other everyday necessities will mark its 90th birthday this summer. And with that anniversary comes a responsibility to strengthen the program – and determine how we can help it age in the healthiest way. As the bedrock of retirement in America, our financial future depends on protecting Social Security for decades to come.
Throughout 2024, AARP DC continued to advocate for policies to empower District residents to improve their lives and choose where and how they live as they age. AARP DC has a long history of supporting older District residents who want to live independently as they age. This year, AARP DC fought for issues that matter most to seniors, their families and caregivers.

From November 14 to December 8, 2024, AARP New York staff and volunteers conducted comprehensive walk audits across the state. The audit aimed to assess pedestrian safety and walkability at various intersections. Evaluators examined 160 intersections, focusing on the conditions of sidewalks, crosswalks, roadways, and crossing signals. The findings revealed that many intersections lacked essential pedestrian safety features, highlighting the need for improvements to ensure safer walking conditions for residents.
