Creating Safe and Affordable Housing and Healthcare for New York City’s LGBTQ+ Seniors and families through a methodical and evidence-based strategy
There is a housing crisis in NYC and it's not going away
The generation that fought the Stonewall Rebellion for our rights is aging and vulnerable. Many do not have children to care for them. They face a senior services industry that is often openly hostile. Too many live in poverty, and many are isolated and alone.
We believe every LGBTQ+ senior deserves a safe, welcoming home they can afford and access to respectful health and mental health care that meets their unique needs.
We provide long-term solutions for the community and immediate assistance for people in crisis.
Our LGBTQ+ Community is the solution.
We have the shared lived experience of the lifelong fight for respect. We have a history of building community networks of care and support. We have creativity, resilience and resources.
​
Stonewall CDC will provide the younger generation with paths to equity by training them in careers serving their elders.
We will provide our seniors with loving care and the opportunity to participate in building a community legacy of perpetually affordable homes.
