🗳️ SAGE Supports Prop 1: Vote YES for Equal Rights in New York! 🗳️ We are proud to stand for the rights and dignity of LGBTQ+ elders and all marginalized communities. This November, New Yorkers have a historic opportunity to expand protections in our state’s constitution by voting YES on Prop 1. By passing Prop 1, we ensure that sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression are explicitly protected under the law—creating a more inclusive, equitable New York for everyone, especially older adults who have fought hard for these rights. ✅ A YES vote on Prop 1 safeguards against discrimination and helps us continue building a future where all elders can age with dignity and respect. Make your voice heard by joining SAGE in supporting Prop 1 this Election Day: https://loom.ly/AH4LSYw #VoteYesProp1 #SAGEVotes #EqualRights #LGBTQPlus #AgeWithPride #EqualityForAll #NYCivicEngagement #ProtectOurElders

Project 2025 puts LGBTQ+ elders at risk for discrimination when receiving healthcare by rolling-back the #AffordableCareAct's non-discrimination protections as well as those provided by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. 🤕 SAGE has outlined some of these policies and the effects they would have on LGBTQ+ elders.

ICYMI 🗣️ Earlier this week, SAGE testified before the @NYCCouncil's Aging and Public Safety Committees in support of Resolution 0561! 🏛️ We're calling on the NY State Legislature to create a statewide public guardianship system to protect vulnerable older adults and close gaps in current protective arrangements. We also highlighted the importance of empowering older adults with knowledge on elder fraud, financial literacy, and end-of-life preparation—essential resources like #SAGECents help our communities make informed choices and stay secure. 🛡️💡 Let’s keep advocating for protections and education that allow all New Yorkers to age with dignity and security. 💙 #ProtectOurSeniors #GuardianshipForAll #SAGEImpact
