What we’re about

If you or someone you care about has come out as LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual or other queer identity) PFLAG Sandy Springs support, discussion, and education meetings are here for you!

PFLAG Sandy Springs is 501c3 non-profit chapter of PFLAG National providing support, education and advocacy for LGBTQIA+ people and their families, friends, parents and allies. 

OUR MEETINGS
Support:
We offer three simultaneous meetings at 7-8:30pm on the first Tuesday of each month.

  • Family and Friends
  • LGBTQIA+ Adults
  • LGBTQIA+ Teens and Teen Allies

We meet at Congregation B’nai Torah, 700 Mount Vernon Hwy, Sandy Springs, GA 30328.

Education:
We offer occasional educational meetings with expert panelists. Recent events include “Healthy Extended Family Communications for the Holidays”, “The Struggle Within: African American and LGBTQ+”, and “Home for the Holidays”.

Sister-chapter events:
We offer occasional links to online and in-person events offered by other PFLAG chapters and PFLAG National. For other meetings in the Atlanta Metro area, search Meetup and Google for PFLAG chapters in Johns Creek, Lawrenceville, Woodstock, Marietta, Peachtree City, and Atlanta. For other areas of the country, go to https://pflag.org/find-a-chapter.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT A SUPPORT GROUP MEETING

  • Warm welcome, presentation of group guidelines, and brief introductions
  • Peer-facilitated discussion based on the needs of attendees
  • Wrap up and announcements

You may participate in the discussion or just observe, whatever you feel comfortable doing.

Every meeting is different and attendees report finding the discussion interesting and feeling a sense of belonging and connectedness. There is no cost to attend the meetings.
