The best way to stay connected to your region and National PFLAG is through the monthly conference call system.
Over the past five years this has strengthened our support for one another and our efforts both locally and at the state level.
The role of chapter leaders is to take information back to their members in a timely fashion and
ask for the support they need to frame our organization so it is relevant for everyone.
If you are unable to participate in calls, please ask someone to represent your chapter and be
the voice for your
community. Key decisions will be made during these calls.
