Unity Circle (Pride Club)

At Pride Club, we believe that everyone deserves a safe space where they can be themselves, free of judgement. Our youth-led support group is open to LGBTQIA+ community youth and allies aged 10-17 who are looking for a safe and supportive community to express themselves. Our goal is to create a space where you can make new friends, have fun, and be accepted for exactly who you are.

All Together Rising

Ages: 12-18

Number of Sessions: 10

These in-depth sessions address eight familiar but adverse conditions affecting many youth.

Designed as trauma-responsive supplemental sessions to implement individually within any One

Circle program, this collection serves as a go-to resource for specific topics offering enhanced

awareness, support, and tools for youth.

Pride

Ages: 9-18

Number of sessions: 10

Unity Circle guide for LGBTQ+ youth of all gender identities, sexual orientations and allies:

transgender, cisgender, nonbinary, gender non-conforming, agender, gender fluid, gender

questioning, two-spirit; gay, bisexual, lesbian, straight, and pansexual. For ages 9-18.

This circle program provides a safe and supportive environment for all youth with expansive gender

identities and sexual orientations and their allies. It actively counters isolation, internalized self-

rejection and other adverse health and mental health effects on LGBTQ+ youth due to

marginalization. With respect for individual safety, control and preference, and with no requirement

for self-disclosure, the circle promotes belonging, inherent value, and community resilience. Includes

instruction for in-person and online facilitation.

Sex in the Digital Age

Ages: 11-18

Number of sessions: 6

Sex in the Digital Age: A Guide to Talking with Teens about Pornography and Sexting is a

supplemental curriculum with essential tools and resources to promote healthy development for

youth growing up in today’s digital world. Providing skills development for media literacy, digital

citizenship, and more accurate public health and sexual safety information, this curriculum

harnesses the relational strengths of youth to effectively explore the complex intersecting topics of

technology, sexuality, and relationships. Due to the content’s sensitive nature, we recommend that

the sessions be provided in an established circle, rather than as a stand-alone guide. For use with

Unity Circle, Girls Circle, and The Council for Boys and Young Men models.

Mitigating Gender & Racial Bias

Number of sessions: 8

Mitigating Gender & Racial Bias: Intersectionality and Allyship is an 8-session Unity Circle™ activity

guide that promotes dialogue and understanding around racial inequities and discriminatory views

and practices toward youth and/or adults of diverse racial and gender identities and sexual

orientations and builds resilience through allyship strategies and relational healing. From within this

relational context, it offers discussions and experiential activities to promote awareness and equity,

and ultimately to improve health and well-being for youth and/or adults of color and LGBTQ+

identities through knowledge, empathy, and allyship skills and actions. Includes instruction for in-

person and online facilitation. Appropriate for older teenagers and adults.
