Who I am

I’m Sarah Bahnson, an educator, writer, and program designer focused on supporting LGBTQ+ inclusion across aging, health, and community-based services. My work centers on helping organizations turn values into practice—through training, curriculum development, writing, and thoughtfully designed tools that are practical, accessible, and grounded in real-world experience. I bring over a decade of experience working at the intersections of LGBTQ+ identity, aging, dementia, and care systems, and I approach this work with care, clarity, and respect for lived experience. Through Civic Moxie, I partner with organizations that want to create more inclusive environments and are committed to doing that work with intention and integrity.
