Mission: Are you or is someone you love lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender?
For the last 30 years, when someone you love has come out of the lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender(LGBT) closet, PFLAG Atlanhas been there to support the parents and families. We support and educate so that the family can adjust to the news and stay in a loving relationship. We advocate in schools with our Safe Schools program, against bullying and discrimination. We are the only group that's been on the ground all these years, holding five support meetings every month in and around the Atlanta area. We currently hold monthly meetings in Atlanta, Marietta, Peachtree City, Johns Creek and Spalding County. PFLAG is changing Georgia, one heart at a time!
