Advocacy
Send a message to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) and urge them to NOT COMPLY with this unconstitutional order. Tell them to listen to the medical experts and protect transgender kids.
Use Your Voice
Affirming your child for who they are, inclusive of their race, abilities and genders, is an act of love. Seeking the help your child needs at the time they need it is an act of love. PFLAG asks you to join us as we continue supporting and encouraging families and caregivers in these acts of love for their transgender and nonbinary children.
- Encourage your neighbors, colleagues and community members to go to PFLAG Chapter programming to learn how to better support our trans and nonbinary loved ones, specifically trans and nonbinary youth.
