Working for you right here at home on things that matter to you
With the start of the 2025 New Mexico Legislative Session just over a month away, AARP New Mexico volunteers and staff are already preparing on how best to get several issues passed during the busy 60-days legislators will be at the Roundhouse.
Leading the list of priorities is paid family and medical leave.
While many people might be familiar with the discounts and insurance products AARP offers, they may not know about the work AARP does at the local level or the kinds of resources AARP has that can make everyday living easier.
To show people the many sides of AARP, AARP New Mexico is conducting an evening reception, Nov. 6, in Santa Fe to show the community the work that is being done right in their hometown.
AARP New Mexico will be conducting two free document shredding events -- one in Santa Fe and one in Las Cruces – both taking place Saturday, Oct. 26.
The event in Santa Fe, however, will have a special combination. AARP New Mexico is joining forces with the New Mexico Department of Justice, which will offer safe disposal of prescription drugs, as part of Drug Take Back Day. Both services will be drive-through.
AARP released a report Aug. 28 that shows an estimated 16,073 New Mexicans on Medicare prescription drug plans will see savings thanks to a new out-of-pocket cap that starts Jan. 1, 2025.
AARP recently announced that three New Mexico organizations are recipients of a 2020 AARP Community Challenge grant. Two of the grantees are in Las Cruces, the South Central Regional Transit District and the Downtown Las Cruces Partnership, while the third grantee, the Embudo Valley Library and Community Center, is in Dixon.
