Small Changes. Big Impact. How SAGECare Advances Inclusive Care
Archstone Foundation believes that every older adult deserves equitable, affirming, culturally informed care. Since 1978, our grantee partner SAGE has worked for exactly that. With Foundation support, SAGE has expanded their SAGECare LGBTQ+ cultural competency training, strengthened tools for caregivers, and advanced systemic change that improves daily experiences for older adults. In this post, Christina DaCosta, SAGE Chief Experience and Impact Officer, shares what this looks like in practice.
