SAN DIEGO -- The Hillcrest Youth Center's annual "Other Prom" is taking place this Saturday and community members are needed to help sponsor youth to attend.

More than 300 youth from throughout San Diego are expected come together for the special evening, themed "HYC's Black N' White Other Prom 2012," to celebrate the end of the school year at the prom, which provides a space for participants to be themselves and share the evening with other LGBTQ young people.
