Our monthly Toms River support meeting encompasses a full range of LGBTQ-related topics. In order to enhance our services, PFLAG Jersey Shore partners with Ocean Partnership for Children (OPC) and the Family Support Organization of Ocean County (FSO). This partnership allows the following services to be provided together at the same time and location each month:

• Support meeting for adults over the age of 18 provided by PFLAG Jersey Shore
• Support meeting & recreational activities provided for teens by OPC through their Your Authentic Self (YAS) meeting
• Childcare provided by FSO (Must register 3 days in advance of the meeting) to allow families an opportunity to attend our meetings who otherwise would be unable to due to lack of childcare

We welcome the entire family to attend our monthly Toms River support group meetings.

Location:

Ocean Partnership for Children Building
36 Washington Street
Toms River, NJ

*Parking is located in the back of the building, accessible on Sherriff Street.

PFLAG Jersey Shore will host a day of volunteering at The Center in Asbury Park. This organization provides services to individuals who are homeless with HIV/AIDS through the provision of temporary and permanent housing, meals, personal care items, and counseling services.

PFLAG Jersey Shore asks its members and friends to collect hygiene items and non-perishable foods and deliver them to us at one of our support meetings or arrange for a pickup. All items will be delivered to the center and on February 22nd we will spend a day volunteering to cook meals, pack food kits, and other tasks necessary to support The Center in Asbury Park’s mission.
