LGBTQ+ older people across Illinois are struggling to get the healthcare, financial security and caregiving support they desperately need, according to a new report from AARP Illinois and SAGE.

The disparities, outlined in a first-of-its-kind report commissioned to help LGBTQ+ older adults to be seen and to be counted, demonstrate the devastating impact that decades of discrimination has had on LGBTQ+ older adults. Disrupting Disparities: Challenges and Solutions for  50+ LGBTQ+ Illinoisans includes an array of policy and legislative solutions that can serve as a roadmap for elected officials and policymakers at both the state and local levels of government.
