We lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) elders have another layer of concerns on top of the usual challenges of aging.  Those concerns might include low self-esteem after many years of having to living in a hostile culture, fear of continuing judgment and discrimination by healthcare, homecare and aging service providers, isolation and lonliness due to loss of peers and lack of family support, and lack of financial security due to having worked in a low-paying career.  The "Aging Gayfully!" class addresses those concerns in addition to the usual aging challenges through weekly presentations of a relevant topic or resource followed by a facilitated group discussion.  In addition, students frequently form supportive connections with each other that extend outside of the class.
