About PFLAG Rochester

PFLAG Rochester is the local chapter of the nation's largest organization dedicated to supporting, educating, and advocating for LGBTQ+ people and those who love them. Based in Rochester, NY, the chapter provides comprehensive support services and resources for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer individuals, along with their parents, families, and allies. The organization specializes in creating safe, affirming spaces where people can connect, learn, and grow together across multiple generations.

PFLAG Rochester offers educational programming designed to help families and communities understand and celebrate sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression. The chapter facilitates virtual meetings and in-person gatherings that bring together LGBTQ+ individuals and their loved ones in a supportive environment. Through their advocacy initiatives, PFLAG Rochester works to educate the broader community and push back against policies that harm LGBTQ+ people, particularly youth facing book bans, classroom censorship, and restrictions on gender-affirming care.

As part of PFLAG's national network of nearly 400 chapters with 250,000 members and supporters, PFLAG Rochester is committed to building loving families united with LGBTQ+ people and allies who support one another. The organization operates with core values of accountability, transparent communication, and clear boundary-setting in all its work. Whether you're seeking support, looking to become an advocate, or wanting to connect with others in the Rochester community, PFLAG Rochester provides resources and community connections to help create a world where diversity is celebrated and all people are respected, valued, and affirmed.
