Leading with Love: Celebrating and Supporting LGBTQ+ Elders

  • Summary

  • With each year that passes, Pride celebrations become more and more mainstream — but in our current political and social climate, LGBTQ+ people of all ages continue to face demonization and stigmatization, a reality that is sometimes magnified for elders.

    Today in the United States, about half of older LGBTQ+ adults live in states where they can legally face housing discrimination simply for being who they are.

    Sydney Kopp-Richardson, director of SAGE’s National LGBTQ+ Housing Initiative, joins the podcast to discuss her work to build affirming, dignified communities where LGBTQ+ elders can live together in safety, support, and joy. Kopp-Richardson reminds us that while we have a long road ahead toward achieving true equality, we all can continue leading with love — and fighting for what we know is right for people of all ages.
