Happy #NationalComingOutDay !

Remember:

✅ Coming out is valid.

✅ Being out only to yourself is valid.
✅ Coming out to family or friends is valid.
✅ Coming out once, or multiple times, is valid.

You are loved. You are valued. PFLAG is here!

Coming out can be scary, but that doesn’t mean you have to go at it alone.

This #NationalComingOutDay, we are here to support your coming out journey, no matter what form it takes

[The Trevor Project @TrevorProject]

On #NationalComingOutDay, remember that coming out looks different for everyone, and it's OK not to come out too 🌈
