LGBT Helping Hands 2/2/10-Open House (for LGBT seniors in San Francisco, CA)

Founded in 1998, openhouse is building critically-needed housing, services and community programs to support the health and well-being of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender older adults.



In April 2008, openhouse received permission from the City of San Francisco to build at least 88 units of affordable housing with support services that will be welcoming to LGBT seniors at 55 Laguna Street.


openhouse is changing the culture of long term care by training service providers to create welcoming, safe and secure environments for the LGBT clients they serve.


Through community organizing, openhouse is fostering the development of intentional LGBT senior communities so that members can support one another as they age.
