You always have a home in PFLAG!

GSAFE is a local Greensboro organization working with students, educators, and parents in Guilford County to make public schools safer and more productive for students who are or perceived to be gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender. Specifically, GSAFE's purpose is three-fold:

1. Providing for the promotion of a public policy by which schools are alleviated from discrimination and harassment on the basis of sexual orientation and/or gender identity/expression so that all students, faculty, staff and other school community members are made physically and emotionally safe;

2. Providing resources which address the educational, emotional, psychological, and spiritual needs and wants of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender youth and their allies; and

3. Providing for the furtherance of the goals of valuing and respecting gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender persons in educational environments.

The Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network strives to assure that each member of every school community is valued and respected regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity/expression.
