OutstandingLife: A Virtual Community for LGBTQ+ Older Adults

The mission of the Outstandinglife.org is to improve the quality of life of LGBTQ older adults. We seek new creative ways to connect older adults: engaging hearts, transforming lives and breaking down boundaries. We know people can still be creative and vital, no matter their age.

We provide a platform and a safe environment that fosters joy and independence. We are a diverse community committed to uplifting our members most impacted not only by homophobia and sexism but through systemic racism, transphobia, and income inequality. As life expectancy grows, we are living well into our 70s, 80s, and beyond. Longevity requires new ways of connecting and thinking about our wants and desires in what we need and want to do during our entire lives. We want to treat each person with dignity and respect and help people achieve their best life.
