LGBTQ+ Aging Project (Fenway)

LGBTQ+ Elders · Nebraska · Free

Boston-based program of Fenway Health expanded nationally to support LGBTQ+ older adults and providers. Worth contacting for senior housing referrals where you can be out without fear of mistreatment. Caregiver support is built into most LGBTQ+ elder programs — partner-led care is acknowledged and supported. Estate planning is critical: without wills + medical proxies, hostile family can override partners and chosen family. Open at no cost to LGBTQ+ Nebraska residents and the people supporting them.
