in 2016, the City of Phoenix partnered with the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) Arizona and the World Health Organization (WHO) to become an AARP Age-Friendly Community.
Building on successful systems already in place and best practices from around the country, the City of Phoenix is focused on providing opportunities in the areas of Civic Engagement; Employment; and Social Participation for residents of all ages.
Vision: Lift the quality of living for everyone in the community by offering volunteer opportunities and serving on boards and commissions.
Vision: Capitalize on opportunities to increase knowledge in our community of older adult experiences and talents for employment.
Vision: Offer a wide variety of activities and opportunities to engage a diverse population of older individuals to improve their health and well being.
