ICYMI: The PFLAG National FY23 Annual Meeting

We held our FY23 annual meeting last week and, in case you missed it, we want to make sure you take a look!

We introduced our new Board President Susan Thronson, and shared some of the VERY exciting things coming up in 2023, PFLAG's 50th Anniversary year -- including a PFLAG rebrand, a new PFLAG National website, and the ways we'll work together on our three-year Strategic Priorities. Big, new things are in the works, and we don't want you to miss a thing!

More on what we're fighting for; where, when, and how we're fighting for it; and with whom we're partnering to achieve justice and equality for our LGBTQ+ loved ones

PFLAG Votes!  The midterm elections are next week and with bad actors out there trying to confuse you and keep you from participating in our democracy, knowledge really is power. Visit canivote.org to get up to speed on when, where, and how you can vote in this election. Having a plan to vote also makes it more likely you'll make it to the polls, so make a plan to vote (if you haven't cast your ballot already) and be ready for Election Day on November 8th!

#ReadWithLove. The fight to end censorship and book bans continues. Head on over to pflag.org/ReadWithLove and learn how you can help add more books about more subjects, histories, and people to libraries and classrooms.

Transgender Awareness Week Virtual Screening: Mama Has a Mustache

Mama Has a Mustache is an award-winning, fully animated doc about gender and family, as seen through children’s eyes. The film explores how children experience a world outside of the traditional gender binary—and how we can learn from them as adults. Now, timed to Transgender Awareness Week, we're thrilled to make the 10-minute film available to watch at Mama Has a Mustache + PFLAG National from November 18-20. 

Consider hosting an in-person screening or virtual watch party with family and friends. Then, on Thursday November 17th, join us on our social media channels for our weekly Something to Talk About Live! with the film's nonbinary Emmy-nominated director, Professor Sally Rubin, just before accessing the film the weekend of November 18th-20th.

We invite you to take advantage of this great opportunity to celebrate Transgender Awareness Week!
