How to be included in the next
North Texas LGBT-Friendly Senior
Housing Guide:
STEP 1
A staff member at your community
will fill out a survey assessing your
community’s current practices
according to the LGBT-Friendly
Senior Housing Metric.
(Note: Your initial score will not
impact your community’s ability to
fulfill all aspects of the standard.)
For more details about the LGBTFriendly Senior Housing Metric,
see page 11.
STEP 2
A team member from the Coalition for Aging LGBT will schedule
a site visit to discuss your survey results, tour the community, and
develop a plan to bring your community up to standard.
STEP 3
Your community will work with our team members to schedule staff
trainings, LGBT programming events, and work to update policies,
procedures, forms, and other forms of marketing and outreach to the
LGBT community. This process should take between 1-4 months.
STEP 4
Once your community has met at least the minimum standard, your
community will pay a small fee, and will be included in the next North
Texas LGBT-Friendly Senior Housing Guide.
