At MFA, we maintain a network of LGBTQ parents with different backgrounds. Our members mentor and help each other across family life cycle in many ways:
Offer resource-and-referral information about adoption, parenting, and other issues;
Provide training and education to LGBTQ parents, professionals, and community members who have the best interest of alternative families in mind;
Promote awareness of and respect for LGBTQ parents and their children to the general public;
Advocate for alternative families so that they may participate fully in the larger community without fear of oppression, intimidation, or exclusion.
