AARP The Magazine was founded in 1948, and serves as the official publication of the AARP (American Association of Retired Persons), an association for Americans over the age of 50. The publication offers editorial on today's headlines, as well as pertinent topics such as careers, politics, financial planning, travel, food, health and fitness, retirement, technology, family matters, and modern love. It includes consumer-oriented articles on beauty, fashion and relationships, games and daily diversions, as well as advice on coping with lifestyle changes associated with growing older. AARP The Magazine (ATM) is geared exclusively towards 50+ Americans seeking to enhance their quality of life as they age. ATM has interactive web-based extensions, an experiential traveling road show, and weekly syndicated radio and television programming. Three demographic editions of the bi-monthly lifestyle magazine are published - one for the 50- to 59-year-old set, one for 60- to 69-year-olds, and one for the over 70 segment. They aim to show readers that aging can be fun and exciting, as well as offering a supply of usable consumer information that helps readers in their daily lives. Topics are targeted by featuring an article with wide-ranging appeal in all three editions, while sidebars and adjacent articles are orientated to the specific age groups. Annual editorial packages, strong service journalism, and celebrity profiles are presented in a warm, vibrant, and inviting format to encourage readers to reflect, engage, and enjoy. AARP The Magazine DOES NOT accept by-lined articles/submissions/Op-Eds but will consider story ideas.
