The UNC School of Social Work is sponsoring a free event on Sat., April 2, “Breaking Generation Silent: Facing the Needs and Challenges of LGBT Elders.” It begins with a viewing of a one-hour documentary film, “Gen Silent.” This documentary highlights the realities that many gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender seniors are facing: the need to go back into the closet to avoid discrimination from aging providers and bullying from fellow seniors in long-term care settings. A panel discussion will follow to further explore the social, medical and financial needs of LGBT elders.
