Aging with Pride — October 21, 2021
Blair MacKinnon

Blair has had thirty years experience in various Provincial Government departments including extensive experience in primary health care as Project Coordinator for numerous innovative programs with Primary Care Networks. He has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from St. Francis Xavier University, Nova Scotia.  

Currently his husband and he are retired and they enjoy travelling the world!! As a gay senior, he realized that LBGTQ2S+ seniors now face the horrible prospect of having to go back into the closet after being “out” for years when they enter some seniors housing.

Blair will present an update on the progress of the Edmonton Pride Seniors Group’s safe, inclusive housing project for 2SLGBTQ+ seniors and our friends/allies.

Aging with Pride is a community group for 2SLGBTQIA+ seniors in Edmonton and area.
