While the recent announcement of a 2.8% cost-of-living (COLA) adjustment for Social Security is great news for all Wisconsinites on the program, we know that more can be done to help our state’s residents age with dignity, purpose, and financial security during these difficult economic times.

At AARP Wisconsin, we believe that everyone should have the power to choose how they live as they age. That belief drives our work, and it’s also why we’re inviting you to join us as a volunteer. Whether you have five minutes or five hours a month, there’s a place for you in our growing network of changemakers across the state.
We know how impactful $1,000 can be. This is our way of extending some seed money to get these projects off the ground. Next deadline: September 27, 2025.

Madison, Wisconsin, like many cities across the United States, is grappling with a housing crisis that affects residents across the socioeconomic spectrum. One promising solution lies in the development of “missing middle housing,” a term popularized by architect Daniel Parolek to describe a range of multi-unit or clustered housing types that are compatible in scale with single-family homes.
AARP is working across the nation to make their communities more livable for people of all ages. Among the keys to creating more livable communities is housing that is both adaptable and suitable for the changing needs and demographics of American households.
