Aging with Pride paints a vivid portrait of the lives of sexual and gender diverse midlife and older adults, documenting a complex relationship between risk and resilience.

Our landmark study is the first federally-funded longitudinal national project designed to better understand the aging, health, and well-being of sexual and gender diverse midlife and older adults. With over 2,400 sexual and gender diverse adults ranging in age from 50 to over 100, this groundbreaking project leads the way in our understanding of how identity and life experience impact aging, health, and well-being over time.

Led by Principal Investigator Karen Fredriksen-Goldsen, this project is a collaboration with community agencies serving sexual and gender diverse older adults in every census division throughout the U.S. The project is funded through a federal grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Institute on Aging (NIA), R01AG026526.
