The Prism Program

The Prism Program The PRISM Program connects LGBTQ+ youth to trained peer specialists who can provide
support Peer support is person-centered and strength-based.

A peer specialist offers support and
guidance based on their own first-hand experience with mental health and/or substance use
challenges. Peer specialists do not diagnose or prescribe treatment, but they can listen, validate,
and help you set and reach your own goals in your healing journey. Peer specialists who identify
as LGBTQ+ can use their own knowledge to help others with things like coming

out, finding
gender affirming care, relationship issues, and more. Young LGBTQ+ people can learn a lot
from older mentors who have faced similar challenges. Peer support can empower youth to heal
themselves and navigate resources that they need. Instagram and request forms are all located here:
