At Silver Rainbow, we are excited to announce the Lead with Pride Pilot Program, an innovative coaching initiative designed to help aged care providers create inclusive, culturally safe environments for LGBTI older people. Launching in March 2025, this unique 6-month coaching program provides tailored support and expert guidance to senior leaders in aged care services, empowering them to deliver more specialized care to the LGBTI community.

What is the Lead with Pride Pilot Program?

The Lead with Pride Pilot Program is a leadership development opportunity for senior leaders within aged care organizations. Over the course of six months, participants will work closely with a highly experienced advisor to deepen their knowledge and build their expertise in inclusive care practices for LGBTI older people.
