HAPPY PRIDE from all of us at PFLAG!! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️As we kick off a month of celebration, advocacy, and community, we’re reflecting on the joy and solidarity captured at last year’s Pride parade. Pride is more than a celebration; it’s a reminder of how far we’ve come, the work that remains, and the power of showing up for one another. This month, we honor LGBTQ+ voices and celebrate the vibrant community that makes Pride possible. We can’t wait to march, celebrate, and continue the fight for a more inclusive future together!!

To help voters make informed decisions, we sent the same set of questions related to inclusivity and support for LGBTQIA students to all candidates in early March 2026, with a follow-up reminder sent two weeks ago. Each candidate received identical questions and was given the same opportunity to respond.

We received responses from the four candidates highlighted here. The remaining candidates were contacted multiple times but did not respond to our requests by the publication deadline.

We appreciate the candidates’ willingness to share their perspectives and priorities with the community. Their responses reflected a range of views, but all engaged directly with the questions posed regarding LGBTQIA students, families, staff, and inclusive school environments. Read their full responses at the link in our bio!

On this International Day of Pink, we couldn’t be more proud to have supported our friends with the Trans Youth Quilt Project! There are 54 decorated squares in the middle of the quilt made by transgender and non-binary youth between the ages of 5 and 19 years old in Arlington County, responding to the prompt “What does Freedom to Be mean to Me?” The outer border of 34 squares was made by allies and parents, enclosing and by extension, protecting, the youth and their right to be who they are. PFLAG will always embrace and safeguard our LGBTQ+ youth, now more than ever. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Happy International Lego Day! Friendly reminder that we have 15 active community groups (both adult and youth groups) in DC and its surrounding areas in Virginia and Maryland. 😊 If you’d like to become an even more supportive ally for your LGBTQ+ loved ones, meet friends with similar life experiences, and reach a wider network of resources - or if you are looking for an LGBTQ+ community of your own - there’s a very good chance we have a group for you. Check out our website at the link in bio for details. ♥️
