NOTE: SAGE provides technical assistance to organizations setting up LGBT caregiver programs. SAGE has worked to reach out to LGBT caregivers, understanding that many of them may not identify as “caregivers,” but nonetheless would benefit from the caregiver services they offer. The Caregiver Program also incorporates a trained pool of Friendly Visiting volunteers who provide weekly caregiving to those who have no caregivers of their own.Īs the only LGBT-focused program of its kind in New York City, SAGE provides supportive services and individual and group counseling to over 210 individual caregivers and their care recipients citywide. As members of these “families of choice” age, LGBT individuals often take on caregiving responsibilities above and beyond what is typical outside the LGBT context. Services are specifically tailored to LGBT caregivers, with the idea that LGBT families can include biologically-related individuals, but also life partners, ex-partners, neighbors and friends. Social workers provide caregiver support, as well as senior case assistance.
SAGE provides a range of social services and advocacy to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) elders. Services and Advocacy for GLBT Elders (SAGE) The data from sensors will also be hosted in the cloud to facilitate easy data analysis.The SAGE Caregiver Program provides LGBT caregivers services including individual counseling, support groups, benefits/ entitlements assistance, and respite services.

Sage will develop open source computer code and provide open hardware design documents. The toolkit will also extend the current educational curriculum used in Chicago and will inspire young people – with an emphasis on women and minorities, to pursue science, technology, and mathematics careers – by providing a platform for students to explore measurement-based science questions related to the natural and built environments. Partners will deploy Sage testbeds in Australia, Japan, UK, and Taiwan, providing scientists with even more data for analysis.
The software components developed in Sage will be open source and provide an open architecture that will enable scientists from a wide range of fields to build their own intelligent sensor networks. The reusable cyberinfrastructure running on these testbeds will give climate, traffic, and ecosystem scientists new data for building models to study these coupled systems. Sage will deploy sensor nodes that support machine learning frameworks in environmental testbeds in California, Colorado, and Kansas and in urban environments in Illinois and Texas. Distributed, intelligent sensor networks that can collect and analyze data are essential for scientists seeking to understand the impacts of global urbanization, natural disasters such as flooding and wildfires, and climate change on natural ecosystems and city infrastructure. Sage will explore new techniques for applying machine learning algorithms to data from such intelligent sensors and then build reusable software that can run programs within the embedded computer and transmit the results over the network to central computer servers. Geographically distributed sensor systems that include cameras, microphones, and weather and air quality stations can generate such large volumes of data that fast and efficient analysis is best performed by an embedded computer connected directly to the sensor. The Sage project will design and build a new kind of national-scale reusable cyberinfrastructure to enable AI at the edge
