AARP Puerto Rico

Local decisions that affect livable communities issues happen most typically in boards and commissions as well at elected councils. AARP WI encourages you to let decision makers know that you support policies that create livable communities for all ages and all abilities. As issues arise, we will share information here to include ways that you can contact the deciding bodies.

Public spaces support physical, mental and emotional health through exercise or social connection. These indoor or outdoor spaces should be accessible to all. AARP supports policies and actions that look at public spaces through an age-friendly lens to support enjoyment by all ages and all abilities.

Older adults need transportation to the places and services that support their independence. Policies that encourage adequate, safe and accessible transportation infrastructure and services help people of all ages stay active and engaged in their community.

AARP surveys consistently find that the vast majority of older adults want to reside in their current home or community for as long as possible. Doing so is possible if a home is designed or modified for aging in place, or if a community has housing options that are suitable for differing incomes, ages and life stages. AARP supports policy and actions that provide options for housing choice that allow people to remain in their home or community of their choosing.

AARP is fighting to save you money on your utility bills.
