Intersex ageing and aged care services

"As we age": An evidence-based guide to intersex inclusive aged care services

This resource was developed as part of a research project partnership by Val’s Café at the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society at La Trobe University and Organisation Intersex International (OII) Australia. The aim of the project was to document intersex people’s experiences of ageing and their needs, and to develop a resource that privileged the voices of intersex people. This guide is based on interviews conducted in 2014 with intersex people over 55 and is aimed at service providers (in ageing, health, and other human and social services). This resource contains some information on intersex, as well as: 1. Key issues in intersex ageing 2. A guide to intersex inclusive aged care services 3. Further information and resources 4. Stories and discussion questions.
