In 2010, SAGE (Services and Advocacy for GLBT Elders) launched the first National Resource Center on LGBT Aging (NRC), the country’s only technical assistance resource center aimed at improving the quality of services and supports offered to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) older adults. Established through a federal grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the NRC provides training, technical assistance and educational resources to aging providers, LGBT organizations and LGBT older adults. Led by SAGE, the Center has partnerships with 14 leading organizations from around the country.
