Important information for any senior.

Over the past year, Sage has been piloting a Legal Systems Navigation Program to better understand the legal needs of older adults—and the real barriers they face when trying to access justice.
Legal issues can be confusing, overwhelming, and costly at any age. For seniors, they’re often compounded by fixed incomes, health changes, digital barriers, and systems that weren’t designed with aging in mind.
To commemorate Access to Justice Week, we are bringing attention to seniors' access to justice topics and highlighting some resources available to older adults to support them in navigating legal systems.

Community share (This is not a Fyrefly study): from .mru Looking for participants!

Q***ring Home is a photovoice research project that explores shared housing models and practices among Two Spirit, le***an, gay, bisexual, trans, and q***r (2SLGBTQ+) adults age 30+ living in Ontario and Alberta who have chosen intentional and long-term cohabitation with others with whom they are not legally related or romantically involved (e.g., friends).

The project uses photovoice methods, a participatory action research method that combines photography and group discussion to enable participants to communicate their thoughts and life experiences and to take active roles in knowledge creation. The overall research questions are: 1. Why do 2SLGBTQ+ adults enter into long-term shared housing arrangements with others to whom they are not legally related or romantically involved, and what meaning do they make from their cohabitation situations and practices? and 2. How do intersections of age, ability, race, migration experience, socio-economic status, and housing policy context shape the formation and practices of such households?
