PFLAG is the first and largest organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) people, their parents and families, and allies. This vast grassroots network consists of nearly 400 chapters and 250,000 members and supporters across America.

PFLAG Leonardtown was established in 2018, renamed PFLAG Southern Maryland in 2023, and continues to be run entirely by dedicated volunteers. We serve all of Southern Maryland, including St. Mary's, Charles, and Calvert counties. PFLAG Southern Maryland is committed to creating a world where diversity is celebrated and all people are respected, valued, and affirmed.

Our members, volunteers, and supporters are parents, grandparents, children, siblings, friends and allies. We are gay, lesbian, straight, bi, cisgender transgender, non-binary, and more. We are Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, atheist, agnostic, and non-religious. We are united by a commitment to make a safe place for people to come and talk about their experiences relating to sexual orientation and gender identity.

Each of us came for help, found support, and joined the organization to assist others on their journey to acceptance. 
We learned we are not alone. Neither are you. We are here to share the journey towards acceptance with you.
​You have a home at PFLAG Southern Maryland. ​❤️  🧡  💛  💚  💙​  💜
