AARP-CT

AARP is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for all as we age. We lead positive social change and deliver value to members through advocacy, service, and information to make things better for society and play a positive role in communities of all kinds. AARP’s public policies serve as the foundation of our work to fight for people 50-plus and help them choose how they live and age.

The process for developing our public policy is overseen by AARP’s Board of Directors to ensure commitment to the organization’s mission and purpose. It includes extensive input and analysis of the views of AARP members and other people age 50 and older throughout the nation, as well as studying policy options to develop innovative and thoughtful solutions that address the needs of the 50+ population.  AARP staff and volunteers, as well as internal and external policy experts from a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives, contribute to the formulation of AARP’s policy.

Every two years, AARP publishes its Policy Book to inform people where we stand.
