AARP New Jersey

AARP New Jersey educates and advocates on behalf of those 50+ on issues that are important to them, their families, and to all Garden State residents.
AARP New Jersey wants to help you protect yourself and your loved ones from Fraud.

Here’s what to know about taxes in New Jersey, whether you’re a resident who’s working or retired or if you’re considering a move to the state.
We’re giving Congress 100+ reasons to prioritize a tax credit for family caregivers in the first 100 days of the new presidency. Add your reason to the list. We’ll share your reasons with Congress so that they understand what family caregivers experience day-in and day-out as they care for their loved ones.
AARP New Jersey endorses the efforts of all neighborhoods, cities, towns, and localities to make each and every New Jersey community a safe and inclusive place to live for people of all ages. This includes providing safe, walkable streets; age friendly housing and transportation options; access to needed services; and opportunities for residents to be active members of their communities. These initiatives are propelled by the reality that these resources, among many others, influence whether a person can remain in the community and for how long. Once in place, those resources enhance personal independence; allow residents to age in place; and foster residents' engagement in the community's civic, economic, and social life.

Overall, almost three quarters of respondents (72%) indicate that they are worried about the cost of electric bills going up and an overwhelming majority (75%) says they are not interested in subsidizing already profitable nuclear power companies.
It’s time for lawmakers to listen to their constituents. 72% of New Jersey residents are worried about the cost of electric bills going up and 75% say they are not interested in subsidizing already profitable nuclear power companies.
