摘要
Research on LGBTQ older adults reveals persistent accessibility problems with health and social services specific to this segment of the population as well as the need to develop inclusive approaches to remove accessibility barriers. In Quebec, governmental measures (such as public policy, action plans and reports) have prioritized actions to improve the accessibility of resources, raise staff awareness and encourage the establishment of safe and welcoming environments for LGBTQ older adults. This article focuses on two health promotion interventions for LGBTQ older adults: a training program developed by a community group and an online training tool targeting employees within the healthcare and social services network. In the light of these experiences, this article proposes recommendations.
