FAMILY FOCUS:

Workshops for Parents, Guardians and Foster-Parents

Supporting LGBTQ youth in our families and communities is a rewarding–and challenging experience. Being a good advocate for the young LGBTQ person in your life starts with knowledge. These workshops are designed to help adults identify and work with a variety of issues–coming out from both young person’s and parents’ perspectives, the latest information on sexual orientation and gender identity, safe schools, building positive faith communities, and advocating for the rights of LGBTQ youth. Whether your child’s been out for weeks or years you’ll find new ideas to help them thrive.


Come with your questions,
experiences, problems, and feelings.
Share the journey with other parents
and experts on LGBTQ youth.

PFLAG’s Hospitality Center

for Family Focus Participants

The Hospitality Center is a place where parents, foster parents, and guardians can come to relax, have a moment of quiet, find resources, and talk privately or in small groups to parents from PFLAG (Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays).

If you have come to the conference with special concerns or if the sessions have raised any issues for you, stop by and meet parents with many years of experience supporting LGBTQ youth and their families. Talking can be especially helpful if you have learned recently about your child’s sexual orientation, gender identity or questioning. We’ll be available between and during the sessions, and we look forward to meeting everyone. Printed resources will also be available for you to take home.
