Living Unequally: Disrupting Health Disparities in the District
AARP has been fighting to ensure Americans get the Social Security they've earned for decades and we are here to help answer important questions. Questions that we hear often include: When should you claim? How can you maximize your money? How much will you get? Here are answers to some of those questions.
Does your community group need a speaker? AARP DC volunteers can deliver presentations on a variety of topics to groups of 25 or more across the District. We can tailor the length of the talk to fit the group’s needs.
Ease their burden by offering compassion and assisting with financial and emotional recovery

AARP DC announced that SOME will receive a 2023 Community Challenge grant – part of the largest group of grantees to date with $3.6 million awarded among 310 organizations nationwide. Grantees will implement quick-action projects that help communities become more livable by improving public places; transportation; housing; digital connections; diversity, equity and inclusion; and more, with an emphasis on the needs of adults age 50 and older.
Volunteers are needed to help keep District of Columbia roads safe—and to keep older drivers confident behind the wheel. Volunteers receive training to teach in-person AARP Smart Driver courses, which are held both online and at community centers, hospitals, libraries and other sites.

Social Security is your money — you earned it through a lifetime of hard work. And like most Americans, that money is needed to help cover living expenses and pay bills. More than one in nine District residents – 83,647 people – receive Social Security benefits, and 32 percent of residents 65 and older rely on the program for at least half of their income.
Do you know a volunteer in the District who gives their time and talent to help others in their community?
