PFLAG Attleboro represents a compassionate community organization rooted in a powerful legacy of family support and acceptance. Founded on the principle established by PFLAG National in 1972—when a mother recognized the need for support systems for loved ones of LGBTQ+ individuals—the Attleboro chapter continues this mission by bringing that same care and understanding to families and friends throughout the Massachusetts area. The organization welcomes parents, families, friends, and allies of LGBTQ+ individuals, as well as LGBTQ+-identified persons themselves, creating an inclusive environment where all are valued. PFLAG Attleboro is dedicated to fostering dialogue and understanding within the community while working to create a society that celebrates human diversity. The chapter's goals reflect its commitment to the Attleboro community: providing group support and education for LGBTQ+ allies and families, offering resources for LGBTQ+-identified persons, serving as an educational and advocacy resource for the broader community, and building meaningful partnerships with other LGBTQ+ organizations. By meeting regularly both online and in-person at the Second Congregational Church in Attleboro, the organization ensures that community members have accessible opportunities to connect, learn, and grow together. PFLAG Attleboro embodies the belief that families and friends who understand and accept LGBTQ+ loved ones create healthier, more resilient communities where everyone can thrive authentically.
