YEES Program Students are Successful

Through accountability the students in the YEES program learn to trust supportive adults, and learn to work with positive role models to ensure their success.

Our caseworkers work to bring the entire family together as a unit to ensure that the youth is successful at home and at school.

Our school based intervention program provides the student the support they need to help them get through their school day.

The YEES program empowers our youth with the skills and the confidence they need in order to achieve the goals that they didn't think were previously possible.
