Being an Asexual and Aromantic Ally: You Can’t Fix What’s Not Broken
Be Kind, Not Just Nice: Transforming Your Conversations
We all know the phrase "if you're not going to say something nice, then don't say anything at all." But what do we do when being kind means not being so nice? Join the PFLAG team to learn some of the skills you need stand up for what you believe in without becoming unkind yourself so you can transform your conversations.
One of our key goals is to help you take the information that you learned in this session and use it to make your chapter stronger and more effective. To do that, we’ve created this page to provide you with tools, resources, and references to materials mentioned in the workshop. As always, the PFLAG National staff is here to help. If you have any questions, comments, or just need some good advice, please don’t hesitate to contact us!
