By Elder Law Prof Blog

HHS to Create a National Resource Center for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and
Transgender Elders Yesterday HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced plans to
establish the nation’s first national resource center to assist communities across
the country in their efforts to provide services and supports for older lesbian,
gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) individuals.

The Administration on Aging will award a single Resource Center grant at
approximately $250,000 per year, pending availability of funds. Eligible entities
will include public-private nonprofit organizations with experience working on
LGBT issues on a national level.  The funding announcement for the Resource Center
will be made available on the following website very soon.
