Our volunteers are speaking up for more housing choices in Pittsburgh!
AARP Pennsylvania recently joined Pittsburgh City Council's discussion on expanding housing choices, including accessory dwelling units (ADUs), that can help older adults remain in their homes as they age.
Shoutout to volunteer Barbara Hill for sharing her voice and providing strong testimony on behalf of AARP Pennsylvania, and to fellow volunteers Terry Gerst and Suzanne McCartney for supporting the effort.
The Social Security cost-of-living adjustment helps millions of older Americans keep up with rising costs.
AARP will keep fighting to protect Social Security from cuts and efforts that threaten the financial security Americans have earned through a lifetime of hard work.

The AARP Pennsylvania Team was thrilled to welcome AARP CEO Dr. Myechia Minter-Jordan to Philadelphia last week!
Her visit brought together staff, volunteers, community and state leaders for meaningful conversations about the issues that matter to older Pennsylvanians and how we can work together to make a difference.
Before you cast your ballot, get informed. AARP asked Pennsylvania’s gubernatorial candidates, State Treasurer Stacy Garrity (R) and Gov. Josh Shapiro (D), where they stand on key issues affecting older adults and their families.
