History – In January 1994, D.H Shelnutt, Pastor of St. Timothy United Methodist Church asked his congregation whether the community would unify or be ripped apart by crime and fear. Based on that sermon and with leadership from Reverend Shelnutt, Pride Rings in Stone Mountain(PRISM) was formed with support from individuals, churches, civic organizations, businesses and elected officials.

In October 1994, PRISM became an official non-profit membership organization governed by a board of directors, to reflect the needs of the community and residents on Memorial Drive from Avondale to the Stone Mountain Freeway
