AARP Minnesota

Helping connect Minnesotans to resources that help them save money and live their best life
Advocating for what is important to our members and giving you a voice at the state and federal levels is a priority for AARP Minnesota. Your voice matters. We work with local organizations and town and city officials on making our communities more livable and greater places to age with dignity and purpose.
AARP is sending a clear message that Social Security must be protected. We’re taking action to ensure that all older Americans can safely access the benefits they have earned and get questions answered in the ways that are best for them.
No matter where you are in the caregiver journey, these local agencies and organizations can help make the process easier

AARP Minnesota will inform residents about the change and promote AARP Smart Driver courses and other AARP Driver Safety programs during Traffic Safety Day at the Mall of America in May.
This fall, candidates are taking to the stage trail to discuss critical issues facing our state and country in debates and forums. Debates and forums are more fun to watch with friends – host a watch party either in-person or virtually!
Questions to ask candidates:
The state Legislature is considering paid a family- and medical-leave bill that would establish a state-run insurance program to provide up to 12 weeks of partial wage replacement for workers who take leave to care for a family member, for a pregnancy or because of a serious illness.
AARP invests in communities across Minnesota through 7 organizations as part of nationwide grant program
Americans 50+ are our nation's most powerful voters - and they will be the deciders in the 2022 elections. Voters across the country will be faced with new voting rules and may have to cast their ballots in a different polling place than they have before.
Be sure to make your voice heard by voting in the Tuesday, Aug. 9, primaries.
50 Over 50 is more than a list. It's a connected cohort of over 250 trailblazing community builders, public officials, educators, nonprofit leaders, healers, small business owners, artists, and disruptors from across the state of Minnesota. If your nominee is chosen as an honoree, we'll tell and share their stories, invite them to speak at community events, and create moments for them to connect and collaborate with this incredible network.
The annual Andrus Award for Community Service is AARP's most prestigious and visible volunteer award. It recognizes individuals who are sharing their experience, talent, and skills to enrich their communities in ways that are consistent with AARP's purpose, vision, and commitment to volunteer service, and that inspire others to volunteer. Only one volunteer per state (or couple performing service together) can receive the Award.
Are you interested in making an impact in the lives of older adults? AARP MN has more than 1,200 volunteers across the state fulfilling our mission of empowering older adults to choose how they live as they age. AARP MN volunteers visit elected officials, educate people in communities on how to protect themselves against fraud, and host fun activities that build social connections.
The majority of Americans would like to remain in their own homes and communities as they age, instead of moving into a long-term care center. While for some it may be a preference, for others it may be a necessity due to expenses, logistics and other factors. Regardless of why an individual may choose to remain at home, aging-in-place can deliver its own set of challenges. Aging-in-place takes planning and may require a large network of caregivers, services, and even physical modifications to the home.
