Designed for all who value the LGBT contribution to the American family in all its diversity and held in Fort Lauderdale, FL, in the Spring of each year, this innovative annual conference proudly raises up our own family values for all to see, whether it is our family of origin, our partners and children, or the deep and familial bonds of friendship that is often so powerfully supportive in the gay community. We honor those who value our families in their many forms, who advocate for our families and who celebrate the values that make our families strong in the midst of adversity of all kinds.

Our intent is:
• To honor and strengthen the many ways we bond for support, nurturance, challenge and growth
• To deepen awareness of the life giving power in all our diverse ways of being family.
• To enhance our relational, parenting, mentoring and care giving skills.
• To gather in joyful celebration of who we are as family.
• To proclaim the contributions we make to the larger communities of which we are a part.
• To recognize those who are our friends, advocates, mentors and leaders.
