Aging Matters
A Peer Group for Older LGBTQIA+ Adults in Middle Tennessee
FiftyForward launched a peer group for LGBTQIA+ older adults in Middle Tennessee following a Nashville Pride survey that found that many LGBTQIA+ adults felt isolated. Surveys and conversations also revealed the need for more comprehensive programming for older adults in the LGBTQIA+ community. FiftyForward’s group meets virtually or in person each month.
