Our Stories, Our Voices

“Our Stories, Our Voices,” is part of the Old Lesbian Oral History Project (OLOHP) produced by the Women of Puget Sound Old Lesbians Organizing for Change (PSOLOC).  The film is designed to develop a cost- effective outreach to better the lives of older lesbians, particularly those who are isolated, invisible and vulnerable.  Narrated by Founder Arden Eversmeyer with dramatic readings of 40 excerpts taken directly from some of the Herstories,  the film aims to increase  the self esteem and community engagement of older lesbians, improve their mental and physical well being, increase the likelihood of aging in place and reduce the risk of early institutionalization and significantly higher health care costs among the group.   1 p.m. Oct. 14 at the Senior Center on Bank Road;  everyone’s welcome.
