PFLAG supports LGBT people, their families and friends locally and nationally by providing PFLAG chapter helplines, support group meetings and resources.  PFLAG also educates families and communities on sexual orientation, gender identity and LGBT issues.  Local PFLAG chapters educate their communities through a variety of projects while PFLAG National continues to provide fair and accurate information about LGBT people, their loved ones, and the unique challenges they face.  PFLAG also advocates for equal rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people on local, state, and national levels.
