PFLAG Dayton

Community 👥, Coffee ☕️, & Carbs 🥯!

Looking for a safe space to connect. Join PFLAG Dayton Kettering Group for our next meetup. Whether you're Q+, a family member, or a solid ally, there's a seat (and a bagel) waiting for you.

No agendas, just support. Come as you are! 🏳️‍🌈

Being a parent or caregiver is a journey,
especially when you're learning how to best support your Q+ loved one. PFLAG Dayton is your local space to exhale, ask questions, and find a community that truly understands. Join us for our next support meeting to find connection & conversation.

Whether you're heading to a university, community college, or trade school, that $4,000 can go a long way toward books, tuition, and housing. Know someone who this would be perfect for? Tag them below! A simple tag could be the reason they get $4,000 for school! Link in bio!

This is your friendly reminder that the PFLAG Dayton Scholarship applications are open & the deadline is approaching! We are awarding FOUR individual scholarships worth $4,000 each! If you are an Q+ student or a dedicated Ally in the Greater Dayton area, this is for you!

Link to the Zoom meeting is in our bio!

Whether you need a space to share, listen, or just breathe, our PFLAG Dayton Zoom Check-In is open to you. Join us for some mid-week connection and support, everyone is welcome! ❤️

At the top of the window is the logo for We Need Diverse Books, followed by the name of the organization and a subtitle denoting it as a Nonprofit Organization. Body text beneath says, “Follow us to discover & support even more diverse stories like this!” Underneath the body text is a row of green icons, indicating how people can engage with this post by liking, sharing, commenting, and saving.

A crowd of diverse protestors appears on a gradient background with the trans flag colors. A halftone image of an arm holding a megaphone along with blue and yellow text reads, “Trans youth need your voice now,” followed by a link to hrc.im/comment.” The HRC logo appears.
