Elder Abuse in the LGBTQ2SA+ Community

Elder Abuse in the LGBTQ2SA+ Community – Queer and trans elders have been described as ‘The Silent Generation’, since they have lived through times when their sexual and gender identities were criminalized and pathologized.  This session will be of interest to anyone working with older adults, including medical professionals, care providers, police, counsellors, community developers and policy makers.

Presented by:

  • Dr. Gloria Gutman
