What is PFLAG?

PFLAG is an organization of LGBTQ+ people, parents, families, and allies who work together to create an equitable and inclusive world. Since our founding in 1973, PFLAG works every day to ensure LGBTQ+ people everywhere are safe, celebrated, empowered and loved. Many people don't know where to turn when a child, family member, friend, or other loved one comes out as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or queer (LGBTQ+). PFLAG chapters provide support, education, and advocacy to LGBTQ+ people, their parents and families, and allies, including co-workers, teachers, doctors, and others who wish to better understand and support them.
