Prism Community Events
We at Prism Counseling and Support believe authentic connection is a radical act of mental health. Our LGBTQ+ community events create affirming spaces outside of sessions where you can meet people, share real conversations, and foster togetherness.

What are our Community Days?
Prism hosts a Community Day on the last Saturday of each month. Our Community Days began after the 2024 election and are a chance for us to spend time in a safe and inclusive space with other people who "get it." We have a different activity or theme for each month, from crafting to movies to educational workshops, and so much more.
If you have not joined us for one of our Community Days yet, we hope you will try us out in 2026!
Next Community Day: 11/28 Details to come soon!

For those who are in a position to give, your donation directly funds these gift cards, providing immediate and flexible relief to someone who needs it. No judgment, just people supporting people.
