SUMMARY:Encouraging Social Inclusion: Faith Communities as Neighbourhood Hubs
DESCRIPTION:Fall 2019 Learning Series \nLed by Pat Spadafora\, Project Manager – Hamilton Seniors Isolation Impact Plan (HSIIP) \nThis presentation is for faith community leaders and others interested in social inclusion. \nFaith communities are natural gathering places for people of all ages. \nSince 2005 I have worked to develop a community hub model for Grace Lutheran Church which has greatly benefited the wider community and ourselves. You could already be engaged in a community hub model or may not know about this yet. Either way\, Pat’s insights\, learning about the model Grace Lutheran Church has used and having the opportunity for discussion\, will benefit all leaders from all faith communities. \nIn addition to sharing key learnings from the 3-year Hamilton Seniors Isolation Impact Plan project\, Pat Spadafora will engage participants in a conversation about the role of faith communities as neighbourhood hubs for supporting not only older adults who are experiencing social isolation but for individuals of all ages. \nWe have invited Pat Spadafora\, Project Manager for the Hamilton Seniors Isolation Impact Plan\, to speak with us on how our locations can become Neighbourhood Hubs in our local communities. \nAs the founder and former Director of the Centre for Elder Research\, an applied research Centre of Excellence at Sheridan College in Oakville and Kaleidoscope Consulting\, Pat brings much experience and insight around the issues seniors face in our faith communities and the wider community. \nYou can read more about Pat Spadafora on her website www.kaleidoscopeconsulting.net. \n  \n  \nPlease RSVP by Wednesday\, September 25th to reserve your spot for supper and please let us know of any dietary concerns. \n905-527-0877 or info.glchamilton@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Enhancing access to quality long-term care services for older LGBTQ persons
DESCRIPTION:Gilbrea Centre for Studies on Aging Seminar Series\nat McMaster University\n  \nAlisa Grigorovich will be speaking about: \nOlder lesbian\, gay\, bisexual\, trans and queer-identified (LGBTQ) adults\, like the general older adult population\, would prefer to age in place in their community for as long as possible. However\, while there is growing attention to later life sexualities in empirical literature and health professional education\, gaps remain in knowledge regarding older LGBTQ adults living with chronic illness/disabilities in Canada. Drawing on recent research with this population\, Alisa Grigorovich will explore their care experiences and needs and identify the importance of fostering home care providers’ competency in providing affirming and respectful care. She will argue for the need to engage in arts-based and visual methods for education and knowledge translation in this regard\, and present an example of the development of such an initiative\, called ‘Out at Home.’
