The You Tube "It Gets Better" Project - Dan Savage started the It Gets Better Project. GLBT people from all walks of life, some famous, some not, tell their storys of how it was hard when they were younger, but how it does get better when they get older.  Children and teens who are struggling with their own identities can find comfort from these stories in which people reveal how it DOES get better.

The Family Acceptance Project (FAP) is a community research, intervention, education, and policy initiative that is affiliated with San Francisco State University. FAP is the only project of its kind, that studies how family acceptance and rejection affects the health, mental health, and well-being of LGBT youth. Dr. Caitlin Ryan, PhD, ACSW is the director. "More..." button

We're Glad You Found Us!

We are a group of parents, friends and supporters of people in northeast Kansas whose sexual and/or gender orientations differ from the binary expectations imposed by our society. Our goal is to educate and assist anyone who feels disenfranchised because of their self-identities in these areas: Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays. PFLAG is there for all of these people.
PFLAG members provide support and information to counter myths and misinformation about sexual orientation and gender identity.  They are a resource to straight and fair-minded allies who want to join the fight for equality for all.

You have a home in PFLAG!
