Welcome to PRISM, a student-run organization that was established in 2019. Our group aims to foster a supportive and safe environment at Open Access College for heterosexual, cisgender, and LGBTQIA+ youth and staff. We come together to discuss various projects, aspirations of our group, and exciting activities we'd like to engage in as a collective. Confidentiality is a key aspect of our group, and we ensure that members adhere to co-created group norms to maintain a safe, respectful, and supportive space for everyone involved. We hold meetings twice a term, allowing for both online discussions and face-to-face meet-ups.
As an organization, we have achieved significant milestones in the past;
In our efforts to promote inclusivity, we successfully petitioned the school principal to display rainbow and ATSI (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander) flags on the 91自拍 website's home screen. Furthermore, PRISM members created a dedicated chill-out room during the school formal, providing a relaxed atmosphere for all students attending the event. This space was equipped with board games, bean bags, sensory-friendly activities, and lapel badges displaying preferred pronouns, allyship, and the rainbow symbol.
Our ultimate goal is to provide opportunities for LGBTQIA+ students to belong to a welcoming community and share their successes. We also strive to enhance awareness of external activities and resources available in the community to support students who identify as LGBTQIA+.
Join PRISM and be a part of our inclusive and empowering movement at 91自拍
