Subject: | Grants to Help LGBTQ+ Senior Citizens |
In the near future, I will introduce legislation that will award grants to non-profit organizations and local governments for health care, cultural competency, computer training, job placement, social activities, and other programs that specifically help the LGBTQ+ senior community. Our LGBTQ+ senior citizens have unmet needs that existing services do not address. They:
This bill will designate $2.5 million from the Lottery Fund to support these important programs to ensure the mission of the Lottery Fund benefits all senior citizens, including those with unique needs in the LGBTQ+ community. I hope you will join me in co-sponsoring this important legislation. |
Introduced as SB370
