Making a Difference

Taking Care of Our Own

The LGBTQ+ community has always survived by caring for one another, and SAGE provides the network to make that possible for more LGBTQ+ elders each day. By providing access to the aspects of healthy aging – housing, financial stability, food, mental health and community connections – SAGE builds health & longevity for our community.

Shaping Policies & Communities

We advocate for legislation, policies, and practices that recognize, respect and make space for LGBTQ+ elders. From changing laws to training elder-care and healthcare providers to creating resources that empower our community to build financial stability and live in safe spaces to age in community.

A Brighter World

At SAGE, we envision a world where LGBTQ+ elders are valued, have limitless opportunities, and thrive. Since 1978, we have led the way in advocating for policies, services, and resources that empower LGBTQ+ elders to live openly and authentically. Our dedicated team members work nationally to protect our rights, build health and longevity, and preserve the vibrancy of our community as we age. Each of us has a place in creating a bright future for the LGBTQ+ community and we light the way for the next generation to follow.
