PFLAG DuPage

PFLAG DuPage provides comprehensive support, education, and advocacy services for LGBTQ individuals, families, and allies throughout the Wheaton, IL community and surrounding areas. Since its establishment in 2004, the organization has been dedicated to creating an equitable and inclusive world through its three-pronged approach: emotional support for those navigating issues of sexual orientation and gender identity, quality educational programming that fosters understanding, and active advocacy for equal rights and inclusive policies. The chapter holds monthly meetings on the third Sunday of each month, offering both in-person and virtual participation options with guest speakers, group discussions, and access to a curated library of LGBTQ educational materials. PFLAG DuPage actively engages in community outreach, providing resource tables at local events, offering speakers for schools, churches, libraries, and social service organizations, and partnering with community institutions to advance understanding of LGBTQ issues. The organization also administers the PFLAG DuPage Name Change Fund, which assists community members in offsetting the expenses associated with legal name changes. Whether you are a parent, family member, ally, or LGBTQ individual facing workplace, family, or social challenges related to identity, PFLAG DuPage offers a confidential, welcoming environment where you can find acceptance, information, and lasting friendships with others who understand your journey.
