Abstract
Abstract In Los Angeles County (LAC), the population of older people living with HIV (OPLWH) is rising and psychosocial issues are largely unexplored. The Healthy Living Project hosted focus group discussions with English and Spanish-speaking gay and bisexual men, heterosexual men, transgender women, and cisgender women. Universal and group-specific concerns included: sentiments of diminished mental health, loneliness, and age-based and HIV stigma from communities and service providers; financial security, housing, social interactions, and access to care. Our findings emphasize the development of population-specific and intersectional programs and services tailored to the diverse needs of OPLWH.
