AARP Florida is making a difference where you live.
As we head into fall, AARP Florida remains deeply engaged in protecting the interests of older Floridians, especially when it comes to the rising cost of utilities. Over the past year, our team has been at the forefront of the Florida Power & Light (FPL) rate case, advocating for transparency, fairness, and affordability in the face of unprecedented proposed rate hikes. This builds on our longstanding efforts to oppose similar rate increase proposals from Duke Energy and TECO, the other electric utility companies regulated by the Florida Public Service Commission (PSC), where we fought to protect consumers from unjustified utility costs.
Do you know an extraordinary volunteer age 50+ who is making a significant difference in your community? AARP Florida wants to honor them!
AARP Florida is expressing strong concerns about Florida Power & Light’s (FPL) newly filed settlement agreement, noting that it prioritizes corporate and business interests over the needs of residential customers.
As the 2025 hurricane season ramps up in Florida, older adults and family caregivers face a critical responsibility: ensuring safety for themselves and their loved ones.

ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. – November marks National Family Caregivers Month, a time to recognize the 40 million Americans – including more than 2.7 million from Florida – who help older parents, spouses, and other loved ones live independently at home, where they want to be.
With the holiday giving season approaching, a new survey from the AARP Fraud Watch Network found that 70 percent of consumers failed a quiz about how to stay safe from common holiday scams, and many are regularly engaging in risky behaviors which could leave them at risk of being victimized by con artists.
Are you one of the 2.8 million Floridians caring for a parent or loved one? If you said “yes” then you’ll want to participate in AARP’s Virtual Family Caregiving Fair on Nov. 19.
