PFLAG Sandy Springs

PFLAG Sandy Springs provides comprehensive support services for LGBTQ+ individuals, their families, and allies throughout the northern Atlanta suburbs. Operating in Sandy Springs, Georgia, the organization hosts monthly support groups specifically designed for teens, LGBTQ adults, and parents, meeting on the first Tuesday of each month. These structured support gatherings create safe spaces for community members to connect, share experiences, and receive peer support from others navigating similar journeys. Beyond monthly support groups, PFLAG Sandy Springs organizes educational meetings featuring expert panelists on topics relevant to LGBTQ+ communities and their families. Recent programming has addressed critical issues such as healthy family communication during holidays and the intersection of African American identity with LGBTQ+ experiences. The organization also maintains connections with a broader network of PFLAG chapters throughout the Atlanta metro area, including chapters in Johns Creek, Lawrenceville, Woodstock, Marietta, Peachtree City, and Atlanta, allowing members to access additional resources and events. As part of the national PFLAG network—the first and largest organization of its kind with nearly 400 chapters and 250,000 members nationwide—PFLAG Sandy Springs brings professional expertise and evidence-based approaches to supporting LGBTQ+ individuals and families. The organization is committed to creating an affirming environment where diversity is celebrated and all people are respected and valued for their authentic selves.
