I just got an article published about lgbt senior health concerns which is a big concern for the lgbt community, including housing, retirement benefits, insurance benefits, and a safe and supportive living and medical services environment, that includes gay friendly providers and caregivers, and a welcome lgbt visitors and advocates.
Here is the article:

Also, please watch the following “It Gets Better Project” Youtube video which documents the experience of lgbt elders.
Please share this with your friends, peers, and providers, as a way to make lgbt healthcare more accessible to this diverse community. Thank you so much.
