AARP New York volunteers are a dynamic group of people using skills they’ve cultivated. They work to improve the lives of fellow New Yorkers — and not just folks age 50 and older. They may attend a hip hop concert and hand out fliers about Medicare. They might lend a hand at food drives around Thanksgiving. Or they may travel to Albany to make sure the governor and state legislators are aware of vital issues, like caregiving support and unaffordable prescription drug prices. Whether you love meeting new people, working on projects that matter to your community, or speaking up on issues that impact people 50 and older, AARP has a role for you.

Connect with AARP New York while celebrating National Family Caregivers Month! Family caregivers are the backbone of the long-term care system. Caregivers provide vital services to New Yorkers, from helping with grocery shopping to meal preparation, transportation, and more, ensuring their loved ones can remain living in their own homes and communities for as long as possible. New York State’s 2.2 million family caregivers provide an estimated 2.1 billion hours of care for older parents, spouses, and other loved ones each year. These family caregivers need increased services and resources to support them in their labor of love.
