Age-Friendly Santa Fe is a local initiative that helps our community become a better place for people of all ages to live. As part of this initiative, the City of Santa Fe is developing an Age-Friendly Action Plan. This action plan will help our community improve resources to make Santa Fe a great place to live for people of all ages.
Be a Part of Age-Friendly Santa Fe
The City of Santa Fe invites you to participate in our Age-Friendly Santa Fe Initiative.

We will host community listening sessions, workshops, and other events at which you can take our survey and share your opinions and insights into how Santa Fe can be a great place to live for people of all ages, especially older adults.
Age-Friendly Santa Fe began when the City of Santa Fe joined the AARP Network of Age-Friendly States and Communities.
What is the AARP Network of Age-Friendly States and Communities?
The AARP Network of Age-Friendly States and Communities is a program that provides support and resources to improve a community’s livability for people of all ages, especially older adults. This network connects communities across the globe to share insights, practices, and resources that help communities improve along 8 Domains of Livability:
- Outdoor Spaces and Buildings
- Transportation
- Housing
- Civic Participation & Employment
- Health Services & Community Support
- Social Participation
- Communication & Information
- Respect and Social Inclusion
Now that Santa Fe is part of the network, the next step in the AARP Age-friendly program process is to conduct a community needs assessment and develop an age-friendly action plan. The age-friendly action plan will create goals and strategies that aim to improve the quality of life for Santa Feans along the 8 Domains of livability. The City of Santa Fe will develop these goals and strategies from the insights and opinions the community will share through our Age-Friendly Santa Fe Survey and Age-Friendly Santa Fe community events.
