Our STORY
Who We Are
Five years ago in Mobile, Alabama, 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 programs
What We Do
Prism United offers programming for LGBTQ youth and the people who care for them. Our youth programs—Prism Teens and Prism Preteens—provide in-person and virtual gatherings, special events, and other services for youth ages 10-18. Our Prism Families program provides peer support and local resources for family members of LGBTQ youth.
