Claire Casey

As president of AARP Foundation, Claire Casey guides the strategic direction of the nation’s leading organization committed to reducing poverty for and with older adults. In 2024, the Foundation worked with 1.1 million older adults with low income, who earned more than $1 billion in income, benefits and tax refunds, and it fought for their rights all the way to the Supreme Court. Under her leadership, the Foundation is investing in technology and research to advance effective, scalable solutions to create economic opportunity for older adults, and it’s embracing volunteerism to drive social change. Casey joined the Foundation from the Economist Group, where she led their global public policy consulting business. She has more than two decades experience leading organizations through transformation and growth. She is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
