Gay Families
Families
come in all shapes and sizes. Most of our members are fathers who have
children from former heterosexual relationships. Some are supportive
partners of gay fathers and others are gay fathers through adoption. We
are a diverse group of men from all backgrounds, races, and religions. We
come together to give each other support and encouragement and also to
have a little fun. Collectively our members have been through the trials
and challenges of coming out, separation, divorce, rebuilding and
establishing new relationships. A place of encouragement and
understanding, GFC Baltimore has many members who are leading happy,
normal, fulfilling lives as loving fathers, partners and friends...who
just happen to be gay.
