We're pleased to announce that a new PFLAG chapter is starting in a place that has needed support for years: Abbotsford! If you're in the Valley, feel free to join them this coming Wednesday, February 26th from 7-9pm, (details and location below). Please join us! Our next public meeting will take place on Wednesday, February 26, 2014 at 7pm Pacific. Location: Sweeney Neighborhood Centre, 33355 Bevan Ave, Abbotsford Feel free to drop us a line if you plan to join us. Email us at [email protected]a. PFLAG Abbotsford, like PFLAG Vancouver, is a chapter of PFLAG Canada. Our missions are the same, and we in Vancouver are looking forward to helping our partners in the Fraser Valley to become a successful chapter. As someone who went to high school in the Abbotsford area during the early 90s, I can fully attest to the fact that Abbotsford has needed this type of support for a long time. I'm very happy to see it coming to life. All the best, Colin McKenna President, PFLAG Vancouver

Robert Joseph Greene, The Gay Icon Classics of the World
Piano Lounge, Green College, UBC February 18th 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm Admission: FREE Robert Joseph Greene embarked on a journey to find gay love stories from different cultures that were suppressed due to homophobia. Greene thought that his love stories would show the world that the LGBT Community exists in every culture. What he didn’t expect was that his simple love stories would lead to an arrest of an activist for reading “gay propaganda”in front of a children’s library. Greene has been at the forefront of fighting Russia’s “Anti-Gay Propaganda” laws and answers questions as to why the Olympics is the perfect venue for bringing awareness to injustices from human rights to fairness in sports.
