More than 3 million Americans over the age of 65 are LGBTQ+ — and this number is expected to double by 2030. Persad Center is dedicated to providing caring, confidential services that match the unique needs of LGBTQ+ people as they age. We draw upon decades of experience working with the LGBTQ+ community to deliver support and services that help older adults live full, healthy and independent lives. 

​

Persad’s older adult services include: 

 

RESOURCE REFERRALS

If you are looking for assistance on any issue that affects your health, well-being, and quality of life, our senior specialist will help you find the right resources to meet your needs.

 

​

COFFEE & CONVERSATION

A weekly gathering for LGBTQ+ Seniors & Boomers (ages 50+) at Persad Center. Enjoy free coffee & danish in a casual, comfortable atmosphere. Strike up a conversation with old & new friends! We meet every Thursday at 10:00 AM at Persad Center.
