AARP

AARP works as a collaborative, nationwide organization focused on helping Americans aged 50 and older live with more choice, security and purpose. Founded in 1958 by Ethel Percy Andrus, the nonprofit brings together staff, volunteers, members and local partners to strengthen communities through advocacy, information, services and carefully selected programs. Its work spans health and financial security, caregiving, employment, retirement, Medicare, Social Security and personal fulfillment. The organization describes itself as nonpartisan and emphasizes practical support that helps older adults and their families navigate changing needs with confidence.

AARP's teams work across research, policy analysis, communications, member services, philanthropy and technology. In its enterprise technology organization, collaborative Agile teams use cloud computing, automation, artificial intelligence, machine learning and modern reliability practices to support mobile work, secure systems and digital services. This mission-driven culture values cooperation between technical specialists and business stakeholders, continuous improvement and responsible innovation. AARP also publishes AARP The Magazine and AARP Bulletin and operates AARP Foundation programs addressing poverty, tax assistance, food security, workforce development and other barriers affecting older adults.
