Working for you right here at home on things that matter to you
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.

Became a Voice For Change
As a nonprofit organization, AARP has never endorsed candidates nor contributed to political campaigns, parties, or candidates—and we never will.
The October 2024 AARP Volunteer Summit was an incredible gathering, brimming with excitement and a powerful sense of purpose! Each year, dedicated AARP volunteers from across the state and our tight-knit team of four staff from the Wyoming State Office come together to reconnect, rejuvenate, and dive into fresh ideas and initiatives that strengthen our communities. This year, we saw our shared commitment deepen toward AARP's five priorities: Fraud Prevention, Caregiving, Social Connections, Veterans Support, and Brain Health.
Thirty volunteer leaders from around Wyoming descended on the Ranch at UCross in North Central Wyoming, Oct. 2 for three days of workshops and discussions to further AARP Wyoming's work in the Cowboy State. Themed, ìRooted & Amplified: Technology as a Force to Deepen Community Connections, the week saw presentations from AARP's national office featuring volunteer-led fraud and scam prevention efforts and methods for equipping volunteers to connect and lead presentations offered by local community action teams in the fields of caregiving, artificial intelligence, and movie nights.

When Tropical Storm Helene slammed into western North Carolina, AARP volunteer leaders and staff all across the state were anxious to help. Many ideas were proposed, but it was a single photograph in the Citizen Times of the devastation of a veterans housing site in Swannanoa, one of the hardest hit towns, that spoke most powerfully of the tremendous need in the Mountain Region.
Volunteers will place wreaths on veterans’ graves, offering a profound gesture of respect and gratitude for their service.
