Based on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, LGBTI+ Community Ageing Network (LGBTI+ CAN) was established to assist aged care and health service providers understand and meet the needs of members of our LGBTI+ communities as they age. Initially the group was known as Ageing in Diversity Action Group which was established with the support of Commonwealth funding following the Living Longer Living Better legislation in 2013. The Queensland Aids Council (now known as QC – Queensland Council for LGBTI+ Health) organised the original group and they continue to auspice LGBTI+ CAN. The group continues to be comprised of LGBTI+ community members, allies, service providers. No longer reliant on Commonwealth funding, we remain a non for profit associated with QC.
