Only a few days remain to register for the Power of PFLAG Conference!

Join us this Saturday, October 10, at NIU Naperville for a full day with the PFLAG community – learning, sharing experiences, making connections, and supporting one another.

This year’s program includes presentations, workshops, panels, and conversations on topics affecting LGBTQ+ people and their families, along with nearly 20 exhibitors and community partners. Whether you are a longtime PFLAG member, attending for the first time, or simply looking for a welcoming and informative community gathering, we would be very happy to see you there.

Registration is only $20 and includes meals, thanks to the generous support of our sponsors and donors.
