Dear John, In recent years the conversation around parental rights has been dominated by voices that want to limit the freedom to parent, to read, to learn, to be ourselves, and to thrive. Our Saturday plenary at Learning WIth Love: The 2025 PFLAG National Convention will focus on our 2026 advocacy campaign, Fighting for Our Pride. We’ll talk about the ways PFLAG chapters, members, and supporters can take on local advocacy work and shift the narrative on our families, our freedoms, and guaranteeing a future where all people can thrive and be themselves. Moderated by PFLAG National VP, Advocacy Katie Blair (she/her) our panelists will include Aisha Davis (she/her), Senior Policy Counsel at the ACLU of Illinois, Sam Helmick (they/them), President of the American Library Association, and Patty Reeves (she/her), Regional Director, Southern Region (AR, LA, OK, TX) at PFLAG National and President of PFLAG Midland/Odessa. Don’t wait—spaces are filling up fast and we’re just weeks away! Register TODAY at pflag.org/2025convention and help us kick off Fighting For Our Pride. Because liberty and love are inseparable. |
