The Project Prom initiative was created to meet the needs of homeless and at-risk students during prom season.

The event also includes motivational speakers, college and career resources, health services , and much more. We are anticipating approximately 1,000 high school seniors to attend. Of these 1,000 students, 800 young ladies and 200 young men will be selected from various Houston ISD high schools district-wide.
The event is happening on Saturday, April 1 from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. at Sterling High School at 11625 Martindale Road in Houston.
