AARP New York

Senior Centers & Social · New York · Free

AARP's New York state office. Programs, advocacy, and member benefits for adults 50+. A starting point for caregivers needing to get the senior out of the house for adult day care or peer connection. Online classes (Senior Planet, GetSetUp, AARP) cover technology, fitness, and topics on demand — many are free. Intergenerational programs (volunteering with kids, mentoring) consistently improve mood and cognition in older adults. No cost to older adults or the people helping them.
