Bloggers: Post for LGBT Elders Monday
I’m in my late 40s. I don’t consider myself old. But I do think about growing older—and about why we need to work now to address the serious challenges LGBT elders face. Please join me this Monday in raising awareness of these issues.
Join Us on Blogging for LGBT Elders Day November 9
Please join me in Blogging for LGBT Elders on November 9, in conjunction with the television premiere of Logo’s documentary on LGBT elders, “Gen Silent.” Whether you’re an elder yourself, want to honor our LGBT elders, or don’t want your children to worry about you when you do get older, we want your voice to be heard.
