Based at 730 Polk Street, the organization provides care navigation, case management, client advocacy, emotional and practical support, wellness activities, volunteer assistance, and community-building opportunities.

Its LGBTQ+ Aging & Abilities Support Network offers care navigation, peer support groups, advocacy, and social and wellness programming for LGBTQ+ older adults and adults with disabilities.
