Connect with our community
Thrive with Pride Cafes are meeting online during the COVID-19 pandemic, but you can still connect with a cafe near you for fun, informative discussions on topics that matter. We hope to return to in-person meetings when it is safe for everyone!

Every month, AgeOptions hosts a free online Zoom event for LGBT+ older adults, caregivers, and service providers. This event is open to the public. We host an informational presentation and discussion on a different topic each month. Click her to see this month's event and access an archive of past presentations on our YouTube channel.
