The LGBTQ community is extremely diverse and has a variety of needs. Older adults face significant levels of isolation and are often rejected by their families. 50% of LGBTQ people are not out at work because they fear losing connections with their co-workers. 25% of LGBTQ people live in poverty and are more susceptible to food insecurity. Robert Vitelli, CEO of the LGBTQ Network, takes us inside the LGBTQ Network and its essential role in the LGBTQ community.
"We are a home, and we are a voice. Not only for the LGBTQ community but for their families and their support system." Robert Vitelli, MA
