"What Can PFLAG Do For Me?"

Pat, a mom new to PFLAG Phoenix, wrote:  "In going to church for over 30 years, when my son came out, the church turned their back on us. When we found PFLAG and went to our first meeting, we found more acceptance, love and support in that one meeting than we did in going to church for 30 years."  Read the full story...
