2SLGBTQIA+ older adults continue to face systemic barriers, invisibility, and unmet needs across hospice, palliative, and long-term care. This session shares lessons from the first year of a two-year provincial initiative led by Dignity Seniors Society to strengthen safer, more welcoming care pathways for 2SLGBTQIA+ people at the end of life. The session opens with Labhrás Quigley introducing the Inclusive Long-Term Care Project, its origins, partnerships across health authorities, and the progress made toward affirming care for 2SLGBTQIA+ older adults throughout British Columbia. Through stories, emerging findings, and practical tools, participants will reflect on how care providers and health systems can build capacity and foster environments grounded in belonging, safety, and dignity.
