PFLAG Connects: Communities

PFLAG Connects: Communities (PCC) provide a safe, virtual, moderated space where people with shared experiences can connect each month. PFLAG National’s current communities gather people of Latino, Black/African American, Asian American and Pacific Islander backgrounds—as well as military families (in partnership with our friends at the Modern Military Association of America [MMAA]), families with gender-diverse loved ones, and grandparents—to gain support, ask questions, and learn from others who have been through similar experiences. These meetings cater primarily to family members of LGBTQ+ people, and also welcome members of the LGBTQ+ community.

Learn more and check out our upcoming meetings for October.

PFLAG DEI Survey - Last Week to Share Your Feedback!

We need your help and feedback regarding your experiences with diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) at PFLAG.

Will you please complete this brief, 10-15 minute survey to share your experiences? The PFLAG DEI survey is open until Friday, October 11th, and all data collected will be anonymous. 

In partnership with Promise54, we will use these insights to determine where we are with DEI and then develop a plan to ensure that PFLAG is a place where everybody belongs.
