SAGE Report: Building an LGBTQ+ Inclusive PACE Program
SAGE: Advocacy and Services for LGBT Elders (SAGE) has released a report, "Building an LGBTQ+ Inclusive PACE Program."
In the report, SAGE shares important insights into the Medicare/Medicaid PACE (Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly), which provides an effective solution for nursing home-eligible LGBTQ+ older adults to age within their community and chosen families. The report documents SAGE’s active exploration to build an LGBTQ+ inclusive PACE center in New York City.
SAGE has shared its learnings to encourage LGBTQ+ serving organizations to consider building PACE centers and existing PACE programs to become more inclusive and accommodating to LGBTQ+ older adults.
This report was funded by JAHF and the National PACE Association (NPA).
