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.

We unexpectedly lost an incredible member of the PFLAG National Board of Directors. Rest in Power, Erin Elizabeth. 🕯️❤️ "Erin and I both found our community at PFLAG. No board member was more passionate about our lifesaving work than Erin. Whether speaking truth to power or representing her trans Texan community in both Dallas and Austin. In addition to Erin’s passion, she was one of the smartest people on our board. Erin listened to deliberations and then summarized the discussion to its essential conclusions; this skill was a gift to the board. It was my honor to be on this journey with Erin, and I will cherish the time we spent together as well as her legacy as a parent-activist.” - Susan Thronson (she/her), Chair, PFLAG National Board of Directors.
