The Health of Aging Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual Adults in California
 March 2011 | UCLA Center for Health Policy Research

This brief presents unique population-level data on aging LGB adults (ages 50-70) documenting that they have higher rates of several serious chronic physical and mental health conditions compared to similar heterosexual adults in California.
