During these times of social distancing it's important that we never lose touch with our loved ones. Join us in collaboration with ABC7NY to celebrate our love for our mothers, grandmothers and mother figures to show them how much they mean to us. Share your photos and videos on social media by tagging @AARPNY and using the hashtag #VirtualHugs!

We’re writing with an important message to let you know that we have canceled our external events until further notice. While convening events is a core part of our mission, we have changed our approach in light of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

We have postponed all AARP New York events across the state. While convening events is a core part of our mission, we want to protect everyone’s health and safety in light of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. We will be back in touch with you when events are rescheduled.

The AARP NY Corner and Univision 41 discuss how to correctly count all the inhabitants of the country, and what job opportunities in the 2020 Census Bureau are available. It's important that everyone knows how vital it is to participate and how much of an impact it could make in our community.

In celebration of Asian American/Pacific Islander Month, AARP NY is featuring profiles of members and volunteers on Long Island. Mona Ng has been an active volunteer since 2015 and has lived on Long Island for over 30 years. She also spends her time volunteering at a Chinese cultural center, a hospital and at senior centers on the island and says “Giving back to the community gives me a lot of satisfaction.” Her avid volunteerism garnered her a nomination last year for North Hempstead’s annual May W. Newburger Women's Roll of Honor.
