SAGECAP (Caring and Preparing), is a program of Services & Advocacy for GLBT Elders (SAGE) that provides a safe and welcoming community to LGBT caregivers as they navigate their current and future needs: as they provide care for a loved one, SAGECAP cares for them, and in turn helps them prepare for their own aging future. We spoke with Scott about this program, the first of its kind in the nation. What kinds of caregiving services does SAGECAP provide?
What was the impetus for SAGECAP?
How do you let people know about your caregiver services?
About how many participants use your services throughout the year?
