Our Mission, Goals, and Family-Friendly Policy

Mission
Our mission is to promote the health and well-being of gays, lesbians, bisexual, and TRANS* individuals, their families, and friends through support, education and advocacy.

Goals
PFLAG provides opportunities for dialogue about sexual (affectional) orientation, and acts to create a society that's healthy and respectful of human diversity. We want to reach out to parents and families of gay, lesbian, and TRANS* adults and youth. We welcome everyone, including those who identify as GLBT, to be a part of the PFLAG family, and in telling their stories, help us grow our understanding.

Family-Friendly Policy
PFLAG Skagit is committed to outreach to families and dedicated to creating safe and welcoming events and opportunities for support, education and advocacy for the GLBT community and for all peoples. In keeping with that mission we feel we are a trusted name and choose to protect it by supporting events that are family-friendly or have clear delineations around what is age appropriate. This was adopted under the guidelines of National PFLAG and by a vote of the PFLAG Skagit Board of Directors.
