In a state whose legislature convenes for only 90 days every other year, AARP Montana plans to hit the ground running when the next session begins the first week of January. The AARP state office will be pressing for legislation that affects more than 400,000 Montanans age 50-plus—including bills to support family caregivers, strengthen consumer protections and safeguard services that help Montanans continue to live at home as they age.

Continuing our longstanding commitment to honor veterans, active military and their families, AARP Montana has set up this resource page to share free tools, guides and resources that are especially designed for Montana veterans and military personnel.
