Outreach
The Outreach Track is the face of PRISM on the ground, responsible for community-facing events such as pride festivals, social mixers, career fairs, and more. We get the word out about PRISM's work, educate on sexual health, gender identity, and LGBTQ+ history, and distribute essential harm-reduction resources.
