AARP Virgin Islands

Español | We’re almost one month into the 2022 Atlantic Hurricane Season, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) has forecasted what could be its seventh consecutive above-average hurricane season. AARP-Virgin Islands is working very hard to keep the territory – especially its 50+ community – informed about preparing for the current hurricane season and other disasters.

Y dado que la pandemia de COVID-19 está comenzando su tercer año, el acceso a internet de alta velocidad asequible y confiable, también conocido como banda ancha, es esencial para proporcionar las conexiones que los residentes de las Islas Vírgenes con sus familiares, amigos, proveedores de atención médica, trabajo y mucho más.

Español | High speed internet is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity. And with the COVID-19 pandemic now entering its third year, access to affordable and reliable high speed internet, also known as broadband, is essential to providing the connections Virgin Islanders need to family, friends, health care providers, work and so much more.

Communities across The Virgin Islands are working to become more livable for residents of all ages.

Retired Virgin Islands government employees can go back to work without giving up part of their pensions, under a new law passed after a campaign by AARP Virgin Islands.
