The
LGBTEI Conversations series is designed to connect people
with people, information and resources so that they can age successfully. Conversations address topics of interest
to LGBT older adults, aging service and healthcare providers, and caregivers.

seniors.

This
series of programs is free and delivers critical information, resources and
social opportunities to LGBTQ older adults. Topics for the programs in the Conversations
series are based on input from community members. In collaboration with
community organizations and service providers, the LGBT Elder Initiative brings
experts in their fields for open and frank discussions and information sharing
with consumers and service providers.
The
LGBT Elder Initiative has partnered to produce these programs with
organizations including: the area agencies on aging (AAA), Alzheimer’s
Association, CARIE, AIDS Law Project, Mazzoni Center, Penn Medicine, AIDS
Activities Coordinating Office (AACO), Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, Center
in the Park, William Way Community Center, and many others.
Videographiy for the
Conversations series and the video library of these programs are made possible
by the generous support of Glenn Sykes and Peter Lien.
