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.

On behalf of AARP, AARP Services strives to be an advocate in the marketplace for the 50 and over population. AARP Services encourages companies to consider the role they play in affecting

positive social change by building or tailoring quality products and services that help those 50 and over live their lives to the fullest.

AARP and AARP Services regularly seek input from members; they also conduct research to identify which products and services would be of most value. AARP Services is responsible for looking

into possible new offerings, performing quality control with regard to providers and monitoring the satisfaction of members who use AARP-branded products and services.

Products, services and discount benefits are managed with four key principles in mind:

AARP is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that empowers people to choose how they live as they age.
