AARP is launching a nationwide movement, I Am A Caregiver. To many lawmakers, America’s millions of caregivers are invisible. Yet, these family caregivers hold up a broken long-term care system, which is why AARP is looking for your help.
Find free online and in-person local events designed with you in mind. Discover fun exercise classes, healthy cooking demos, helpful workshops, and more.
We are thrilled to announce that 11 projects in 8 Wisconsin cities, including Appleton, Darlington, Green Bay, Ladysmith, Madison, Milwaukee (four winning projects), Neillsville, and Sturgeon Bay (Door County), will receive 2025 AARP Community Challenge grants totaling a combined $103,500.
The free expo attracts thousands of guests every year and features speakers, interactive activities, health screenings, live entertainment, raffles, and games. Outside, hundreds of people participate in the drive-thru shred event.
Loneliness and social isolation are not just emotional challenges; they are public health crises that significantly impact the well-being of older adults. Recognizing the gravity of this issue, AARP is backing the Improving Measurements for Loneliness and Isolation Act. This federal bill aims to develop standardized definitions and measurements for loneliness and isolation, paving the way for effective solutions.
