MiGen, the Michigan LGBTQ+ Elders Network, is the state’s only community-based organization dedicated to LGBTQ+ adults aged 45+ and those who love and care for them. We believe every person deserves to age authentically and vibrantly, with access to safe spaces, essential support, and meaningful social connections. We provide a wide range of community-based supports—from housing and homelessness diversion to healthcare coordination, public benefits assistance, and social programming—ensuring LGBTQ+ older adults can age independently or in community. As a trusted leader in LGBTQ+ aging, MiGen is committed to making sure no one faces the challenges of aging alone.
We also provide state-wide training and education designed support organizations in creating inclusive, anti-discriminatory environments to help aging service providers, community spaces and other organizations better serve and support all identities, ensuring everyone is treated with dignity and respect.
At the heart of MiGen are our shared values of authenticity, mutual well-being, and belonging. These principles guide our work, both internally and externally, ensuring LGBTQ+ older adults are supported, respected, and able to age with dignity.
