Community Connections

Find other livability-related events, webinars and more: Whether you’re a bike advocate, an aging services provider, a Main Street coordinator or the lead organizer for a walking club, you likely can’t affect community change on your own. Neither can we! That‘s why AARP representatives attend national conferences and events where others involved in livability efforts gather to share best practices.
In 2020, the team will have a presence at more than 10 practitioner-focused conferences where attendees can meet us, collect our free publications and connect with peers who have successfully used an “age-friendly approach” to achieve impact in their community. The following list is presented in chronological order:
