In May 2019, Governor Albert Bryan announced the U.S. Virgin Islands' enrollment in the AARP Network of Age-Friendly States and Communities.

An existing yet inactive Commission on Aging has been reactivated as the Age-Friendly Commission and is being based within the governor's office. First Lady Yolanda Bryan is serving as the spokesperson for the age-friendly initiative. AARP is bringing together local nonprofits that are working on hurricane recovery and resilience to collaborate on and inform a Virgin Islands' age-friendly action plan.
