LGBTQIA+ Awareness and Inclusion Training
FiftyForward provides services for adults age 50 and over in Tennessee and is taking steps to promote an inclusive environment at their seven centers. As part of this work, FiftyForward collaborated with PFLAG to offer LGBTQIA+ awareness and inclusion training that was streamed across centers. The group discussed challenges LGBTQIA+ older adults face and the importance of up-to-date terminology.
