About the Program
In this thoughtful and engaging session, we’ll explore the ever-evolving language around LGBTQ+ identities, discuss pronouns (including neo-pronouns), and reflect on how to foster inclusive spaces for all, especially in older adult communities. Whether you’re a lifelong member of the LGBTQ+ family or a curious ally, this conversation is a chance to learn, grow, and connect with others in a welcoming space.
Let’s celebrate Pride together—with openness, community, and connection.
