AARP Maine in Portland plans to launch a statewide virtual listening tour on Monday, March 7, with a 90-minute community conversation led by AARP Maine State Director Noël Bonam and Volunteer State President Carl Bucciantini.
AARP expects to engage with hundreds of Mainers during the seven-part interactive tour to listen to their concerns and share ideas. In addition, AARP Maine will offer legislative updates on matters of importance to Mainers 50-plus, according to a news release from the nonprofit, nonpartisan organization.
There are seven events to cover the “regions” of Maine. All events are free, but registration is required. Mainers are encouraged to select the event that best suits their needs.
