This snapshot summary of Improving the Lives of LGBT Older Adults summarizes the full report and its recommendations in capsule form.

The snapshot report succinctly summarizes the unique challenges and inequities facing LGBT elders and offers high-level recommendations for eliminating — or at least reducing — inequities and improving the lives, and life chances, of LGBT older Americans.
