About AARP #DisruptAging Campaign

Three-fourths of older workers blame age discrimination for their lack of confidence in finding a new job. So we set up a fake business, giving out free gift baskets, to shine a spotlight on the barriers and ageist assumptions that older workers face in the job search.

Every day age discrimination happens behind closed doors. We wanted to see what it would look like if we brought it out into the open. So, we set up a social experiment with the help of a food truck. We disguised an actress as an employee and refused to serve anyone over 40. Watch our hidden cameras and tell us how you would react in the comments below. #DisruptAging
