Description
?? Join Us for Our Monthly PFLAG Phoenix Support Group Meetings!
PFLAG Phoenix meets every 3rd Thursday of the month from 6–8 PM at the Southwest Institute of Healing Arts (SWIHA) in Tempe. Our meetings are open to LGBTQ+ adults, parents, caregivers, family members, and allies seeking connection, education, and compassionate support.
Each gathering includes:
? An educational speaker or community resource highlight
? An adult-serving support circle — a safe, confidential space to share, listen, and feel seen
? Welcoming, affirming community where you don’t have to explain who you are or who you love
Whether you’re newly exploring identity, supporting an LGBTQ+ loved one, or looking for a community where you truly belong, you are welcome here.
Come as you are. No RSVP required.
