Notes
Lenoir County Council on Aging does workshops aimed at Improving and promoting the wellbeing of senior citizens in Lenoir County. They do or have done workshops with Project Visibility. Below is the statement they included in literature the last time they did an educational and inclusion seminar in Lenoir County:
"Cultural Competency training for service providers on issues facing Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) older adults: This training opportunity is available to professionals who provide a service to older adults living in the community or institutional settings. The programs goal is for all seniors to have access to available services without discrimination or oppression. The training will equip professionals with the information and resources necessary to work responsibly and fairly with LGBT elders and their families, improving the quality of service provided by reducing oppressive or offensive practices.
