NEW YORK: A 50 unit apartment complex being planned near downtown Sacramento has been tentatively dubbed Lavender Court and will cater to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender seniors.
Mutual Housing of California, which has built 19 low-income projects since 1989, is used to partnering with and serving neighborhoods where its projects are built. Often they are in ethnic communities. The non-profit is narrowing its focus for its latest project.
“We want to serve the aging population, and then we want to go make sure that it’s sensitive to LGBT, and have that serve that niche,” said Rachel Iskow, executive director of Mutual Housing of California.
