and Parent's Group


Our Mission

Our mission is to create a safe, inclusive, and equitable space as a support network for LGBTQIA+ youth. We aim to reduce any feelings of isolation or depression that students may experience.

Inclusive Environment

Your child will be in a safe, warm and accepting environment. Our atmosphere enables youth to respect themselves and others. Through diverse creative experiences, we enhance the ability to socialize with others, be creative, express themselves and develop. We provide a high quality program, one which we are always improving.

Parent's Group

Welcome to the Plainfield Pride Parent's Group, a nurturing community created for parents of LGBT children. Whether your child has recently come out or you're already well into the journey of supporting them, this group is a safe haven where you can connect with other parents facing similar experiences.


Our circle is founded on the principles of love, acceptance, and understanding. We believe that every child deserves to be celebrated for who they are, and every parent deserves support and guidance in navigating the complexities of their child's journey.



Here, you'll find a compassionate network of fellow parents who are ready to listen, share, and learn together. From heartfelt conversations about acceptance and inclusion to practical advice on advocating for your child's rights, our group offers a wealth of resources and support.
