What does PFLAG mean?

PFLAG
PFLAG is the United States' first and largest organization uniting parents, families, and allies with people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+). PFLAG National is the national organization, which provides support to the PFLAG network of local chapters. PFLAG has over 400 chapters across the United States, with more than 200,000 members and supporters. PFLAG (pronounced PEE-flag) is no longer an acronym, but just the name of the organization. Prior to 2014, the acronym stood for Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (later broadened to Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays). Until removal of the hyphen in 1993 the name was officially styled as P-FLAG. In 2014 the membership of the organization voted to officially change the name to PFLAG to reflect the decades of fully inclusive work it had been doing in the LGBTQ+ community.

    PFLAG: More akin to Parents, Family & Friends of Lesbians and Gays. It is much more inclusive to LGBTQIA+ = Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Asexual PLUS many more on the human gender spectrum that may not be represented yet. We are limitless as human beings!
