In Memoriam: Nancy McDonald, President Emerita of PFLAG National (1996-1998)
As the first organization to name lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people together in its mission, PFLAG, under Nancy's leadership, ensured that every LGBTQ+ person and loved one would find inclusive support, education and advocacy.

Ally
A term generally relating to individuals who support marginalized groups. In the LGBTQ+ community, this term is used to describe an individual who is supportive of LGBTQ+ individuals and the community, either personally or as an advocate. Allies include both heterosexual and cisgender people who advocate for equality in partnership with LGBTQ+ people, as well as people within the LGBTQ+ community who advocate for others in the community. “Ally” is not an identity, and allyship is an ongoing process of learning that includes action. (Visit Straight for Equality to learn more about how to become an active and effective ally.)
