Aging With Pride

LGBTQ+ Elders · Louisiana · Free

Federal initiative supporting LGBTQ+ older adult research and programs. Relevant for veterans of the AIDS crisis, the Stonewall generation, and elders who lived underground identities most of their lives. SAGE has affiliates in 25+ metros; if there's no local office, the national line connects you to phone support. Many LGBTQ+ elders went back into the closet when they entered nursing homes; SAGE-trained facilities are growing but still rare. Free, confidential, and open to anyone in the LGBTQ+ community.
