Gray Power
White House staff met recently in Miami for
a first-ever conference on aging in the gay
community. Gay adults have long been
overlooked by a larger community more
focused on young gay Americans, experts
argue. Focus of attention and resources on
the AIDS epidemic also has left seniors out
of focus.
New York City-based SAGE (Services and
Advocacy for GLBT Elders), an advocacy
group for lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans-
gender older adults, estimates the number
of gay Americans who are 65 and over at
1.8 million to 4 million. That population is
likely to range from 2.2 million to 5.8 million
by 2030.
