Chapter Meeting Information
Chapters are listed in order of Monthly Meeting dates. For additional details about a chapter, including the latest chapter happenings, click on the chapter name.
You can contact any chapter via our Helpline: 630.415.0622 (note if we are returning a call on a house or employment phone line, please let us know if we should say that we are from PFLAG and returning your call. We will only leave a message saying that we are from PFLAG if you give us permission to do so. We certainly want to be as discrete as possible when responding to your call. Thanks!!)
e-mail: info@pflagillinois.org (Include “PFLAG” in the subject line of the email, you can also include “requesting info” as a general subject)
Please note that if you are sending an email to PFLAG, please be sure to check your junk/spam email filters. Our members will be sending you an email but the email response might end up in your junk/spam email. If you do not get a response soon, please contact our helpline, that will ensure that someone from PFLAG will respond.
Typically at a meeting you can expect to hear introductions from other PFLAG members, hear a speaker about LGBT topics, then a break, then the members break up into support groups where members talk about their experiences of having an LGBT loved one or being LGBT. we strive to make these meetings as welcoming as possible.
Please note that you do not have to come to the PFLAG meeting in your area. You can go to any meeting you wish. We understand that if you do want to keep your appearance at a PFLAG meeting confidential, you are certainly welcome to go to another meeting where you feel you have the best chance of remaining anonymous. Please contact the general email address at info@pflagillinois.org if you have questions about which meeting is best for you to attend.
If you attended a chapter meeting and came away with questions or concerns, or if you were not satisfied with your experience, please call the helpline at 630.415.0622 or email at info@pflagillinois.org and we will respond to your concerns.
Thanks for visiting us!!!
