The best of 2020

The best of 2020? Team PFLAG National!

Typically, PFLAG National shares a best and worst list as our end-of-year edition of The PFLAG Voice. But this year, with everyone keenly aware of the many worsts, we've decided to focus on our bests. And for PFLAG? That means the PFLAG National Staff, Board Members, and Regional Directors. This talented team works hard, all year round, to ensure that our members and supporters--in particular our PFLAG Chapter Network--get the resources they need to do the critical work of PFLAG.

With so many new people joining PFLAG's ranks, we thought it was time to introduce everyone, as we all get ready to start 2021 with an eye toward moving equality forward, together!
