Opening Doors: An Investigation of Barriers to Senior Housing for Same-Sex Couples
Acknowledgments Services and Advocacy for GLBT Elders (SAGE) has been a critical partner throughout the conceptualization, development, and execution of this testing investigation, as well as providing key input for this report. SAGE is the country’s largest and oldest organization dedicated to improving the lives of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) older adults. SAGE offers supportive services and consumer resources for LGBT older adults and their caregivers, advocates for public policy changes that address the needs of LGBT older people, and provides training for aging providers and LGBT organizations, largely through its National Resource Center on LGBT Aging. To learn more about SAGE, visit http://www.sageusa.org. The ERC also thanks the Gill Foundation, and the Retirement Research Foundation for their financial support to help make this work possible. Finally, thanks are due to the ERC members and testers who participated in this project, without whose insights, dedication, and perseverance, the testing and this report could not have occurred.
