The Youth Coalition of Mercer County is proud to present the “Prom For All” on Saturday, June 8th, from 5pm – 9pm at the Mercer County Office Park – Rutgers Co-op Extension (1440 Parkside Ave., Ewing Township, NJ 08638). This is a safe space for all high school-age youth who might be feeling a bit uneasy about attending their school’s prom. It is a safe space that supports the open expression of one’s sexuality and gender identity.
Guests can expect games, dancing, food, and a variety of resources related to mental health, gender and sexuality. A minimum $2 fee is required for entry; additional donations are welcomed and will support YCMC initiatives for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ youth communities in Mercer County.
