PFLAG announces an essay contest

YOUNGSTOWN

Youngstown PFLAG, a nonprofit group for parents and friends of lesbians and gays, has organized an essay contest with a $500 prize for high school youths in grades 10-12. Submissions will be accepted until April 25.

Parental consent and a letter of reference will be needed in order to participate. The winner will be announced May 15, with the award being conferred in June.

For information, go to youngstownpflag.org or email youngstownpgflag@aol.com.

For the past 25 years, Youngstown PFLAG has worked to strengthen families and promote LGBT equality in the Valley. With the essay contest, the chapter will recognize one young person who has made a conscious effort in the community to work toward these goals.

In March 2014, the chapter collaborated with Help Hotline and BRAVO (the Buckeye Regional Anti- Violence Organization) in hosting a conference on LGBT violence. A portion of the funds from the conference helped support the contest.
