Chicago Task Force on LGBT Aging will convene the second Round Table Discussion on LGBT Aging on Saturday, Jan. 31, 1-3 p.m. at the offices of Center on Halsted / Horizons Community Services, 961 W. Montana.
These discussions began last September, following the August 2003 release of the Task Force study LGBT Persons in Chicago: Growing Older. All persons interested in the future of services and programs for this growing segment of the LGBT community are invited to attend, along with representatives of agencies serving seniors across the region.
Among the recommendations in the study report were an increased awareness of the unique gifts and the specific needs of LGBT seniors. Contact Perry Wiggins, (773) 472-6469 ext. 245, perryw@horizonsonline.org .
