Rainbow rights are human rights, and this toolkit, launched in June 2024, identifies how older LGBTI+ community members can understand and action their rights, as well as providing information to the people who are part of their choices, supports and care.
COTA SA partnered with the South Australian Government’s Office for Ageing Well to develop this resource and build awareness of state initiatives that safeguard the rights of older people.
The toolkit is in the form of an interactive PDF and contains information under key human rights themes including: Overcoming discrimination, Housing, Health and Plan Ahead.
Created when COTA SA had the Silver Rainbow Training contract for South Australia managed by LGBTIQ+ Health Australia
