摘要： 农村互助型社会养老是对农村传统非正式互助的正式化、组织化、规范化，是对农村家庭养老的重要补充，是农村社会养老发展的务实选择。动员社会资金和闲置人力资源，低成本地提供互助服务是其重点，资金、组织、服务、评估是其可持续运行的关键部分。以资金为划分标准，互助型社区居家养老包括纯公益型和福利+公益型，互助型集中养老包括纯公益型、纯福利型、市场+型。目前突出问题表现为重设施轻培育，忽视资金互助的基础作用等。社区居家互助面临娱乐—照料服务的转型瓶颈；集中互助需要开源节流、降低成本；一些特殊的互助养老形式需要给予定位和扶持。建议拓宽资金互助渠道、培育农村互助养老组织、扩大农村互助养老内容、推动互助机制介入集中养老等。
