Hinsdale PFLAG Chapter meeting at Unitarian Church of Hinsdale

Every first Sunday of the month from 2-4pm!!

SUNDAY May 2, 2010

The Hinsdale PFLAG Chapter is committed to serving the needs of our Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender loved ones. We are open to all persons of any sexual orientation, gender identity, and any racial or ethnic group, their parents, family members and friends, and any person who cares about the LGBT community. Our primary mission is to support parents, family members and friends who have learned that their child is gay. The chapter and others like it in the Chicago Suburban area are run by mothers, fathers, and their LGBT children. PFLAG is a non-denominational organization.

You always have a home at PFLAG!

In addition, PFLAG promotes education to enlighten an ill-informed public, advocacy to end discrimination and to secure equal civil rights. PFLAG provides opportunity for dialogue about sexual orientation and gender identity, and acts to create a society that is healthy and respectful of human diversity.

The meeting location:

Unitarian Church of Hinsdale

17 West Maple Hinsdale, IL 60521-3450.
