AARP Georgia will be advocating for a state-facilitated retirement savings program for private-sector workers who don’t have access to one through their employer during the 2025-26 legislative session.
Eight Georgia entities awarded grants this year through AARP’s Community Challenge program, which funds quick-action projects to help make communities more livable. Nationally, AARP awarded $3.8 million in grants for 343 projects aimed at improving public spaces, housing and transportation, among other goals.
The 16 counties represented by the Commission join over 600 other communities across the nation that have committed to preparing for an aging population.
AARP Georgia has teamed up with The Heritage Project to present the third installment of "Georgia's Great African Americans of Historic Distinction." Register to attend this free, virtual exhibit!
In other states, advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) have a specialized license that gives them broader authority for patient care. Not in Georgia. AARP Georgia supports legislation to grant separate licenses to APRNs.
