MY Pride
2023-2024
Mansfield Youth Pride (MY Pride) is open to Mansfield residents in grades 5-8 who are part of the LGBTQIA2S+ community (and allies are welcome too).
MY Pride emphasizes self-empowerment, positive youth development, and building strong peer and community connections to validate and celebrate our diverse identities. Group members are encouraged to brainstorm and choose from a wide variety of activities and discussion topics that are most meaningful to them.
Group meets at MMS in room 115 on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of the month after school during regular club time. Groups will not meet on early dismissal days or Holidays. Students will be able to take the late buses home.
*Because this program is run by Mansfield Youth Services, MY Pride does not count towards one of your child's afterschool club sign-ups offered through the Mansfield Middle School. Youth are welcome to join throughout the year.*
Youth wishing to join should have their parent/guardian complete our registration form below and return it to YSB@mansfieldct.org or the Mansfield Middle School back office. For questions about MY Pride contact Youth Services staff:
