AARP Michigan is working on the “Menopause: It’s a Movement!” campaign, led by the Michigan Women’s Commission. Since March, women from across the state have attended panels in which menopause experts seek to help them better advocate for their midlife health. Their stories — and potential policy changes — will be included in a March 2026 report detailing possible next steps.
AARP's vision is a society in which all people live with dignity and purpose, and fulfill their goals and dreams. AARP Michigan is leading that charge in Michigan, investing in initiatives that make communities safer, more inclusive and better equipped to help people age in place with dignity and independence.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, by 2034 the nation will have more people age 65 or older than under 18. By 2060, nearly 1 in 4 people in the United States will be at least 65 years old. Those aren't just fun facts. They are a wake-up call for communities to start planning for a future where aging well is the norm, not the exception.
Eighty years ago, the world witnessed the end of one of the most devastating conflicts in human history - World War II. The Greatest Generation, those who fought in or supported the American and Allied forces during WWII, embodied a spirit of unity, perseverance and selflessness.
