AARP Eye Center
Throughout 2024, AARP DC continued to advocate for policies to empower District residents to improve their lives and choose where and how they live as they age. AARP DC has a long history of supporting older District residents who want to live independently as they age. This year, AARP DC fought for issues that matter most to seniors, their families and caregivers.

In honor of its 60th Anniversary, AARP teamed up with a nonprofit organization to embark on an ambitious project to place an outdoor fitness park organized by FitLot in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. AARP is also investing in robust programming at each location. Programming involves a 45 to 60 minute instructor-led demonstration of the equipment and group circuit training.
