Prism Center supports and empowers lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer students, as well as students whose identities fall in between or expand beyond those categories. We work to create a campus community where people of all sexual and gender identities can thrive.

What we do

Empower Students

We partner with students to build their leadership skills, expand understandings of gender and sexuality, and support LGBTQ+ student success.

Build Community

We create opportunities for all members of UVM's LGBTQ+ communities to be together, meet, and learn from one another.

Advance Campus Climate

We champion efforts to help LGBTQ+ people thrive in all aspects of campus life.
