Quick Summary

The National Retired Teachers Association (NRTA) merged with the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) in 1982. The AARP, founded in 1958 by Ethel Percy Andrus, is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to serving the needs of middle-aged and older Americans. It is open to anyone aged 50 or older, regardless of employment status. The NRTA, established by Andrus in 1947, focused on securing pension and health insurance benefits for retired educators. The AARP provides a wide array of benefits and services to its members, including discounts, insurance programs, and community service initiatives. It also acts as a legislative advocate for the elderly at both federal and state levels.1
