Old Lesbians Organizing for Change

LGBTQ+ Elders · Tennessee · Free

OLOC — empowering and supporting old lesbians nationally. Useful for elders whose biological family is estranged and who need chosen-family-aware support systems. SAGE's National LGBTQ+ Elder Hotline (1-877-360-5428) staffs trained peer counselors weekdays. LGBTQ+ elders are twice as likely to age alone as their straight peers — community programs counter that isolation. No cost — the program is grant-funded and confidentiality-protected.
