PFLAG Greater Harrisburg

About PFLAG Greater Harrisburg

Based in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, PFLAG Greater Harrisburg is part of a transformative national movement dedicated to creating affirming communities for LGBTQ+ people and their loved ones. As a chapter of the nation's pioneering and largest LGBTQ+ organization, this local group brings decades of experience and nationwide resources to Central Pennsylvania families seeking connection, understanding, and mutual support.

Founded on the principle that families united with LGBTQ+ people and allies possess tremendous power to create positive change, PFLAG Greater Harrisburg embodies a vision where sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression are celebrated rather than stigmatized. The organization recognizes that support comes in many forms—whether through attending monthly gatherings where members listen and learn from one another, participating in community events like summer picnics, or accessing educational resources about LGBTQ+ issues and advocacy.

What sets PFLAG Greater Harrisburg apart is its deeply personal, family-centered approach. Members span multiple generations and backgrounds, united by love and commitment to one another's wellbeing. The chapter's scholarship program reflects this investment in young people's futures, while their advocacy work demonstrates dedication to systemic change. Whether you're a parent navigating your child's coming out, an LGBTQ+ individual seeking community, or an ally wanting to learn and support, PFLAG Greater Harrisburg welcomes you into a network of caring, informed, and passionate individuals working toward a more just and affirming world for all.
