One small town, Albert Lea, Minn., has been working hard since January 2009 to prove that by making a few simple changes, a community can add years and purpose to its residents' lives. Now, others can join the last six weeks of the unprecedented AARP(R)/Blue Zones(R) Vitality Project and learn easy ways to strive for additional good, healthy years of life.

All participants registered for the AARP(R)/Blue Zones(R) Vitality Project will be a part of the "6 Weeks to Longevity" initiative. The six-week online experience will include a comprehensive lifestyle makeover, with each week focusing on a key area of attaining longevity.

"By staying active and living with purpose, AARP's 40 million members demonstrate every day that age is not a defining number," said Nancy Graham, Editor of AARP The Magazine. "This collaboration is a unique opportunity to show America that they have a say in determining how many good years they will have in their lives, and offers them the tools to extend that time."
