Membership in the Central Pennsylvania Chapter of PFLAG gives you a chance to meet others with family and friends who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender (glbt).

Perhaps you need to come and listen to the stories of "coming out" and acceptance. Maybe you feel the need to tell your own story. Our meetings give you an opportunity to do just that.

You'll be amazed as you see distraught parents grow into strong advocates for their children. You'll enjoy the fellowship of families who have come through some difficult times and emerged as closer and more loving than ever. You may want to just watch and listen at first, but when you're ready to talk, you'll find sympathetic friends who will help you along your way.

Our meetings generally feature speakers who tell us about their experiences as glbt people, as parents and friends, as educators, advocates, and champions of social justice. We enjoy a period of fellowship and meet annually for a fun-filled picnic. Details on each meeting are found on our News page.

We participate in the annual Pride Festival in Harrisburg and, when invited, speak with students and teachers in local high schools, colleges, and universities. We visit legislators who pass laws affecting the lives of our glbt loved ones. We march in the AIDS walk and lend support to younger glbt people through our Safe Schools activities and support of a youth group for glbt kids.

Your membership will entitle you to receive our monthly newsletter, keeping you informed of chapter, regional, and national news. You'll be able to borrow books and videos from our chapter library. And perhaps most important of all, you'll be able to lend your support in many ways to our goal of supporting loved ones, educating the public, and ending discrimination against glbt people.

Individual or Family memberships are $30.00 annually.

Senior or Student memberships are $15.00 annually.
