As the leading advocate for older adults in Georgia, AARP is committed to promoting inclusivity and acceptance across all communities.
In this spirit, we wholeheartedly support Atlanta Black Gay Pride weekend and emphasize the importance of accepting and supporting the LGBTQ community at every age.
Atlanta Black Gay Pride weekend is a vibrant celebration of diversity, unity, and empowerment. It provides a safe space for individuals to express their authentic selves, fostering a sense of belonging and acceptance.
However, older adults have voiced that programming and events for them are lacking. While older adults have said that they don’t feel included in the current offerings, the promoters and organizers have begun to make efforts to open new activities.
