The largest organization dedicated to supporting, educating, and advocating for LGBTQ+ people and those who love them.
About us
PFLAG is an organization of LGBTQ+ people, parents, families, and allies who work together to create an equitable and inclusive world. We are hundreds of thousands of people and hundreds of chapters from coast to coast who are leading with love to support families, educate allies, and advocate for just, equitable, and inclusive legislation and policies. Since our founding in 1973, PFLAG works every day to ensure LGBTQ+ people everywhere are safe, celebrated, empowered and loved. Straight for Equality is an outreach and education program created in 2007 by PFLAG National to empower new allies who, unlike a more traditional PFLAG member, don’t necessarily have a family connection to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) community. Straight for Equality provides information, resources, and learning sessions that help allies understand their role in supporting and advocating for LGBTQ people, and make sure they have the opportunity to share their strong and powerful voices in support of equality.

Pride season may be ending, but PFLAG National has your back all year long. The effort to threaten organizations that support inclusion has many of our philanthropic and training partners feeling more cautious than they have in many years. But we’re here to remind you that when Love Takes Pride, the words and actions you share in support of LGBTQ+ people, parents, families, and allies can outshine any darkness. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Learn more about our workplace training sessions at straightforequality.org

🚨Breaking: Today, the Texas Supreme Court allowed SB14, a ban on gender-affirming care, to go into effect. “The Texas Supreme Court got it wrong today by ruling against families, against doctors, and against Texas’s future: our kids. Every Texan, transgender or not, deserves the freedom to access the healthcare they need when they need it. To transgender Texans of all ages, PFLAG has your back. We’re going to continue to fight to ensure you are safe, celebrated, affirmed and loved.” - Brian K. Bond (he/him), CEO, PFLAG National Learn more at our website: https://lnkd.in/gsKW8gRT

On this day in 1972, Jeanne Manford marched with her son, Morty, in New York's Christopher Street Liberation Day March, the precursor to today's Pride march. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ After many gay and lesbian people at the march asked Jeanne to talk to their parents, she decided to begin a support group. The first formal PFLAG meeting took place on March 11, 1973, at the Metropolitan-Duane Methodist Church in Greenwich Village (now the Church of the Village). Jeanne Manford was a brave pioneer and the mother of a movement that ignited with her first step. Learn more about our history at: pflag.org/50years
