Un demi-million aux aînés gais, bisexuels et transgenres.
Edited on Sun May-03-09 09:10 PM by Sandrine for you
Le gouvernement du Québec versera plus d'un demi-million de dollars pour des projets visant à favoriser le respect et l'épanouissement des personnes aînées lesbiennes, gaies, bisexuelles et transgenres (LGBT).La ministre responsable des Aînés, Marguerite Blais, en a fait l'annonce dimanche à Montréal, en compagnie d'intervenants de la communauté gaie.

La ministre estime que les réalités homosexuelles des aînés sont encore taboues au Québec. Selon elle, il est nécessaire de sensibiliser et d'informer la population afin de lutter plus efficacement contre les stéréotypes et les préjugés.

Mme Blais a indiqué que l'attribution de cette aide financière de 520 000 $ est une réponse directe aux préoccupations entendues lors de la récente consultation publique sur les conditions de vie des aînés.

4. Thank you for posting this info.
The plight of elderly gay people is a special problem often related to isolation, poverty and illness.

Merci!
