We’re excited to celebrate some big news from our Chamber member, Orlando Gay Chorus (OGC)! 🎶

OGC has announced Dr. L. Fabián González as its newest Artistic Director, following a nationwide search. Dr. González will become the organization’s 13th Artistic Director, continuing OGC’s incredible legacy of more than 36 years of musical excellence and LGBTQ+ community connection.

The Pride Chamber’s AgeFWD Group was proud to be part of an important conversation with Hope & Help focused on LGBTQ+ aging, healthcare, and whole-person care.

One of the key takeaways from the discussion was that affirming care is preventative care. When individuals feel respected, welcomed, and safe in healthcare environments, they are more likely to seek care, participate in preventive screenings and vaccinations, communicate openly with providers, and address health concerns earlier.

The conversation also highlighted the importance of:

• Creating inclusive and visibly welcoming care environments
• Respecting each individual’s identity, privacy, and dignity
• Recognizing chosen family and the support systems individuals rely on
• Building relationships between healthcare providers and LGBTQ+ community organizations
• Understanding how previous negative experiences can influence future healthcare decisions
• Taking a whole-person approach that considers physical, emotional, mental, social, and community well-being

As the LGBTQ+ population continues to age, there is an opportunity for healthcare providers, long-term care organizations, financial professionals, estate planners, and community organizations to work together to create stronger, more inclusive systems of support.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to age with dignity, security, choice, and connection.

Thank you to Hope & Help and everyone who contributed to this meaningful conversation.
