The services we provide to LGBT elders can be the same as those we provide to everyone else. A home-delivered meal doesn’t care who you are or who you love. The transportation provider shouldn’t care about anything more than where to pick you up and where to drop you off. However, for caregiver support, families matter and LGBT families are different.

One of the highlights of my seven years of service as U.S. Assistant Secretary for Aging was the opportunity to travel just about everywhere in the United States, and to visit wonderful programs for older adults.
