Find Community.
Be Yourself.
Serving LGBTQ+ youth and their loved ones in southwest Alabama
Who We Are
In 2015, a group of community leaders and volunteers came together to create a peer support group for LGBTQ+ teens. Over time, the support group unearthed broader issues facing LGBTQ+ youth in the area, underscoring the need for a project that could adequately respond to those issues.
OUR STORYWhat We Do
Prism United offers a continuum of programs designed to support the mental health, connection, and overall well-being of LGBTQ+ youth and their loved ones. Through support groups, healing resources, community events, education, and youth leadership development, Prism creates safe, welcoming spaces where participants can build meaningful relationships, explore identity, and access trusted support.
A YEAR OF BELONGING & BECOMING
At Prism, belonging means having a place where you can show up as yourself. Becoming is what can happen when you know that place is there. This year, we watched young people grow more connected and confident while building a community of their own.
These numbers reflect our 2025-26 program year. Explore our 2026 Annual Report for the full story.
