AARP supports the LGBTQ community, advocating equality in housing, long-term care, retirement and other areas. AARP Maryland encourages residents to show pride and support on Monday, May 16, National Honor Our LGBT Elders Day.
AARP Maryland is recruiting volunteers to participate as online presenters for the Maryland Speakers Bureau. No public speaking experience is required; AARP will provide all the necessary resources and training.
AARP’s commitment to educating and advocating for people over 50 started with the National Retired Teachers Association (NRTA), which represents the interests of educators 50 and older. The organization has a national network of nearly a million retired educators and school personnel.
AARP Maryland’s Speakers Bureau offers presentations on how to get involved with AARP and on a wide array of other topics aimed at people 50 and older. Since the pandemic, the talks have gone virtual.
