AARP joined Lynn University on Tuesday to announce "the prime sponsorship" of the University's Presidential Debate Festival and Watch Party in what is being billed as "intergenerational conversations" on the future of Social Security and Medicare.
AARP Executive Vice President Nancy LeaMond says the debates are part of AARP's 2012 voter engagement efforts.
"These are important issues to voters of all ages, and AARP encourages everyone to make their voice heard about what they think should be done to strengthen Medicare and Social Security," LeaMond said.
AARP will facilitate a series of "intergenerational community conversations" on Lynn University's campus. The conversations will take place at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. Oct. 3 at the Dehoernle International Center; and at 3 p.m. Oct. 15 in the Cafeteria Auditorium.
