Join the movement to make Anchorage a city for all ages! Age-Friendly Anchorage, sponsored by AARP Alaska, is a volunteer-powered effort to ensure everyone—no matter their age or ability—can live, work, play, and thrive in our community.
With more than 58,000 veterans calling Delaware home, AARP has a long history of supporting those who have served in the U.S. armed forces, and we take pride in helping them navigate life’s transitions.
