Report: Making public services better for LGBTQ2+ workers and seniors

CUPE has released a new joint report on creating safer public services for LGBTQ2+ workers and seniors. The report is the result of union advocacy. Over the past decade, LGBTQ2+ CUPE members have been engaged in several gender and sexual diversity initiatives with community partners, particularly around seniors’ issues. Sensing a gap, CUPE’s National Pink Triangle Committee put forward resolutions at the 2017 and 2019 CUPE National Conventions to raise awareness on LGBTQ2+ seniors’ issues and to promote LGBTQ2+ competency in public services.

What measures and approaches work? Our panel will answer these questions and more. Join us as we launch “It’s Got To Be About Safety”: Public Services that Work for LGBTQ2+ Older Adults and LGBTQ2+ Workers in Canada” a report from CUPE, Carleton University researchers and Egale Canada.
