Canadian Association Of Retired Persons

CARP is a national, non-partisan, non-profit organization committed to advocating for a New Vision of Aging for Canada, promoting social change that will bring financial security, equitable access to health care and freedom from age discrimination There are 300,000+ CARP Members across Canada and we are building a strong spirit of community and inclusiveness within our Membership. CARP celebrates people of all backgrounds, gender, values, abilities, family status, age, religious beliefs and sexual orientation. CARP believes an aging population is a societal challenge and not just a concern for people once they hit a certain age or life stage. That’s why we removed the requirement to be 50 years old to join and why we emphasize creating positive intergenerational relationships. And you certainly don’t have to be retired to be a member.
