< Back to School Policy Hub Pronouns 101 What is a Pronoun? Examples General Tips What is a Pronoun? Pronouns are used as a substitution for one's name when referring to a person. Examples of pronouns include she, he, they, I, and we. While no defined rules exist for pronouns, our pronouns often correlate to our gender identity and expression. This differs from your sex, which is a combination of biological attributes, including genetic, physical, and hormonal characteristics. Click here to read more about the difference between sex and gender. Examples People identify with various pronouns such as she/her, he/him, and they/them. They allow a conversation to flow and all parties to understand who someone is referring to without constantly repeating their name. She/Her/Hers These pronouns are typically used by individuals who identify as female. Example: “She looks happy.” “I love her style.” “That shirt is hers.” He/Him/His These pronouns are typically used by individuals who identify as male. Example: “He looks happy.” “Give this to him.” “I love his style.” They/Them/Theirs These pronouns are typically used by individuals who identify as nonbinary or don’t identify as male or female. Example: “They look happy.” “I love their style.” “That shirt is theirs.” As you meet new people, you may find they use different pronouns than these or even a combination of them. For example, someone may use she/they pronouns or she/he/they. It is important to respect one's pronouns and use them correctly. General Tips Don’t assume pronouns. It is best to ask for someone’s pronouns while meeting them. Asking someone's pronouns right off the bat can help avoid misgendering and miscommunication. It may seem awkward at first, but here is a quick phrase you can use to respectfully and simply ask someone's pronouns when introducing yourself: “Hi, my name is ____, and I use (he/him, she/her, they/them) pronouns.” This simple gesture ensures everyone feels validated and comfortable. Recognize all parts of someone’s pronouns. If someone uses more than one pronoun, such as she/they, try not to default to the “typical” pronoun “she” all the time. Rather, use a variation of both throughout the conversation. Putting in the effort to use all pronouns rather than only the ones you may be used to shows that you respect and validate their identity. Don’t be ashamed of making a mistake. If you accidentally use the wrong pronouns, simply acknowledge it and continue. Transitioning to using someone's new pronouns can be strange and difficult to adapt to. Even someone who is using new pronouns may mess up every now and then. Don’t focus on the mistake. Instead, swiftly correct yourself and continue the conversation. As long as you put in the effort and actively correct your mistakes, you are doing a great job, and it will eventually become second nature. References Merriam-Webster Dictionary . (2021).

What is the STI Clinic Search? PRISM's STI Clinic Search is a network of easily accessible, affordable, and non-discriminiatory health centers that offer STI testing in South Florida. For every clinic in our system, PRISM provides the location, contact information, types of tests offered, pricing, and operating hours. For many clinics, PRISM also gives further information on wait times, parking, other services offered, and more! What is the STI Clinic Vetting Program? PRISM regularly updates our information through our STI Clinic Vetting Program. This volunteer-led initiative has people like you go through the entire process of getting tested at the clinics we list on our site, from booking an appointment/doing a walk-in all the way to receiving their results. If our volunteers don’t have a good experience, we’ll tell you why! Do I need to be a part of the STI Clinic Vetting Program to review a clinic? No! Anyone who's received an STI test at one of the clinics listed on our site is welcome to complete this survey to tell us about their experience. If you are not enrolled in the program, you can find the link to the survey by going to our STI Clinic Search and clicking "More Info" on the relevant clinic. Participants in the STI Clinic Vetting Program get tested at clinics specifically to report on the quality of services offered. Participants are given training on STIs and testing, as well as what to expect when getting tested. They are also required to ask specific questions to clinic staff to gather complete information on the clinic. Community service is also offered to participants who are enrolled in the program. Do I have to disclose my test results to participate in the STI Clinic Vetting Program? No! PRISM only asks that participants provide information on the time and manner in which they got their results. If you decide to do so, you may also provide information about case management services that you receive after testing positive. However, this is completely optional. What are the eligibility requirements for participating in the program? PRISM aims to ensure that the clinics we refer are welcoming to everyone. In order to achieve this, we encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply. Volunteers must meet the following requirements in order to participate in the STI Clinic Vetting Program: Must be 18 years of age or older (or 14 years of age with permission from a parent or legal guardian) Must be capable of providing sufficient transportation to intended STI testing centers Must reside in Palm Beach County, Broward County, or Miami-Dade County How do I get involved in the STI Clinic Vetting Program?
