            &nbsp;
  AARP traces its roots to the late 1950s, when a retired California high school principal, Dr. Ethel Percy Andrus, recognized that millions of older Americans lacked access to health insurance and reliable information about aging. What began as a modest effort to help retired teachers secure benefits gradually evolved into a national organization focused on dignity, independence, and opportunity for people as they grow older. Over the decades, AARP expanded its mission beyond pensions and insurance to embrace education, advocacy, and community service, helping redefine what it means to age in the United States.
  In its early years, AARP operated largely through print materials and mailings, sending newsletters and guides to members who wanted clear explanations of Social Security, Medicare, and emerging health programs. As the organization grew, so did its presence in Washington, D.C., where it advocated for legislation designed to protect older adults from poverty, discrimination, and isolation. This history of policy engagement is one reason AARP is often mentioned when conversations turn to retirement security and the long-term stability of federal benefit programs.
  By the 1970s and 1980s, AARP had become known not just as an advocacy group, but also as a trusted source of practical information. Publications covered topics such as caregiving, consumer fraud, home safety, and personal finance, aiming to empower readers to make informed decisions. The organization launched driver safety courses, tax assistance initiatives, and volunteer projects that connected members with schools, nonprofits, and local governments. These programs illustrated a core belief: aging is not a withdrawal from life but a stage rich with possibility and contribution.
  The rise of digital technology in the 1990s and 2000s prompted AARP to rethink how it delivered resources. It began investing in online tools, interactive calculators, and educational content that could be accessed from home computers and, later, mobile devices. This digital shift allowed AARP to reach not only long-time retirees but also people in their 40s and 50s who were planning ahead. Articles on work transitions, entrepreneurship, and lifelong learning reflected a changing reality in which many adults continue careers or start new ones well beyond traditional retirement age.
  Alongside information and advocacy, AARP steadily built a network of benefits and discounts intended to help members stretch their budgets and maintain active lifestyles. Arrangements with hotels, car rental agencies, restaurants, pharmacies, and entertainment venues created a patchwork of savings that could add up over the course of a year. These benefits were never meant to replace financial planning, but they offered tangible, everyday value that reinforced the organization’s commitment to helping people live well as they age.
  Community engagement remained central to AARP’s identity. Local chapters and state offices organized workshops, neighborhood improvement projects, and educational events. Volunteers visited state legislatures, spoke at town halls, and mentored peers on issues like caregiving and fraud prevention. Through these activities, the organization encouraged older adults to be visible, vocal, and active in shaping the places where they live. This combination of national reach and local presence helped AARP stay relevant to a diverse and changing membership.
  Over time, AARP also placed greater emphasis on health and wellness, recognizing that longevity brings both opportunity and responsibility. Campaigns addressed topics like healthy eating, physical activity, brain health, and emotional resilience. The organization partnered with medical experts, researchers, and community organizations to translate complex science into accessible guidance. The goal was not perfection, but practical steps that people could integrate into daily routines, whether that meant walking more, managing medications carefully, or staying socially connected.
  As AARP’s history unfolded, it continually adapted to economic shifts, demographic changes, and new cultural expectations about aging. It broadened its focus to include work flexibility, caregiving support, digital literacy, and housing options that allow people to remain in their homes and communities longer. The thread connecting these efforts has been a simple idea: people over 50 should have choices, information, and support so they can direct their own paths, rather than being limited by outdated assumptions about what later life should look like.
  One everyday example of how this mission plays out can be seen in the life of a member named Clara, who turned 62 in a small Midwestern town. After leaving her full-time job at a manufacturing plant, she found herself unsure about the next chapter. A neighbor mentioned that Clara could join AARP, so she signed up and began reading the articles and guides that arrived by mail and online. She used a retirement calculator to better understand her savings, read a series on part-time work, and discovered a local volunteer opportunity tutoring elementary school students in reading.
  Within a year, Clara’s routine had changed in subtle but meaningful ways. On Mondays, she volunteered at the school, using lesson ideas she found through AARP’s resources on intergenerational programs. On Wednesdays, she attended an AARP-sponsored driver safety course that helped her feel more confident behind the wheel. She regularly checked the organization’s website for tips on managing utility costs and staying safe from online scams. When she traveled to visit her sister, she used hotel and car rental discounts that came with her membership, easing the strain on her budget. In the quiet moments of her week, she read stories of others navigating similar transitions and realized that aging did not mean stepping out of life, but stepping into it with new tools, allies, and perspectives—exactly the kind of support AARP had been working toward since its earliest days.

  <p>AARP traces its roots to the late 1950s, when a retired California high school principal, Dr. Ethel Percy Andrus, recognized that millions of older Americans lacked access to health insurance and reliable information about aging. What began as a modest effort to help retired teachers secure benefits gradually evolved into a national organization focused on dignity, independence, and opportunity for people as they grow older. Over the decades, AARP expanded its mission beyond pensions and insurance to embrace education, advocacy, and community service, helping redefine what it means to age in the United States.</p>
  <p>In its early years, AARP operated largely through print materials and mailings, sending newsletters and guides to members who wanted clear explanations of Social Security, Medicare, and emerging health programs. As the organization grew, so did its presence in Washington, D.C., where it advocated for legislation designed to protect older adults from poverty, discrimination, and isolation. This history of policy engagement is one reason AARP is often mentioned when conversations turn to retirement security and the long-term stability of federal benefit programs.</p>
  <p>By the 1970s and 1980s, AARP had become known not just as an advocacy group, but also as a trusted source of practical information. Publications covered topics such as caregiving, consumer fraud, home safety, and personal finance, aiming to empower readers to make informed decisions. The organization launched driver safety courses, tax assistance initiatives, and volunteer projects that connected members with schools, nonprofits, and local governments. These programs illustrated a core belief: aging is not a withdrawal from life but a stage rich with possibility and contribution.</p>
  <p>The rise of digital technology in the 1990s and 2000s prompted AARP to rethink how it delivered resources. It began investing in online tools, interactive calculators, and educational content that could be accessed from home computers and, later, mobile devices. This digital shift allowed AARP to reach not only long-time retirees but also people in their 40s and 50s who were planning ahead. Articles on work transitions, entrepreneurship, and lifelong learning reflected a changing reality in which many adults continue careers or start new ones well beyond traditional retirement age.</p>
  <p>Alongside information and advocacy, AARP steadily built a network of benefits and discounts intended to help members stretch their budgets and maintain active lifestyles. Arrangements with hotels, car rental agencies, restaurants, pharmacies, and entertainment venues created a patchwork of savings that could add up over the course of a year. These benefits were never meant to replace financial planning, but they offered tangible, everyday value that reinforced the organization’s commitment to helping people live well as they age.</p>
  <p>Community engagement remained central to AARP’s identity. Local chapters and state offices organized workshops, neighborhood improvement projects, and educational events. Volunteers visited state legislatures, spoke at town halls, and mentored peers on issues like caregiving and fraud prevention. Through these activities, the organization encouraged older adults to be visible, vocal, and active in shaping the places where they live. This combination of national reach and local presence helped AARP stay relevant to a diverse and changing membership.</p>
  <p>Over time, AARP also placed greater emphasis on health and wellness, recognizing that longevity brings both opportunity and responsibility. Campaigns addressed topics like healthy eating, physical activity, brain health, and emotional resilience. The organization partnered with medical experts, researchers, and community organizations to translate complex science into accessible guidance. The goal was not perfection, but practical steps that people could integrate into daily routines, whether that meant walking more, managing medications carefully, or staying socially connected.</p>
  <p>As AARP’s history unfolded, it continually adapted to economic shifts, demographic changes, and new cultural expectations about aging. It broadened its focus to include work flexibility, caregiving support, digital literacy, and housing options that allow people to remain in their homes and communities longer. The thread connecting these efforts has been a simple idea: people over 50 should have choices, information, and support so they can direct their own paths, rather than being limited by outdated assumptions about what later life should look like.</p>
  <p>One everyday example of how this mission plays out can be seen in the life of a member named Clara, who turned 62 in a small Midwestern town. After leaving her full-time job at a manufacturing plant, she found herself unsure about the next chapter. A neighbor mentioned that Clara could join AARP, so she signed up and began reading the articles and guides that arrived by mail and online. She used a retirement calculator to better understand her savings, read a series on part-time work, and discovered a local volunteer opportunity tutoring elementary school students in reading.</p>
  <p>Within a year, Clara’s routine had changed in subtle but meaningful ways. On Mondays, she volunteered at the school, using lesson ideas she found through AARP’s resources on intergenerational programs. On Wednesdays, she attended an AARP-sponsored driver safety course that helped her feel more confident behind the wheel. She regularly checked the organization’s website for tips on managing utility costs and staying safe from online scams. When she traveled to visit her sister, she used hotel and car rental discounts that came with her membership, easing the strain on her budget. In the quiet moments of her week, she read stories of others navigating similar transitions and realized that aging did not mean stepping out of life, but stepping into it with new tools, allies, and perspectives—exactly the kind of support AARP had been working toward since its earliest days.</p>
