As we begin our third school year, we overwhelmingly exceeded our second year goals to serve, support and mentor local youth. As a rural community, we see the holistic success of Y.E.S and how identifying needs and leading solutions has given our community the ease of supporting Y.E.S, be that as a volunteer, donor, sponsor, mentor, follower, or partner. Through like-minded relationships and compassion for our students and community, we keep an open mind to solve problems in creative ways. Our enrollment continues to grow. The beauty of Y.E.S is we can grow many branches, we have and we are! 

Seeing the students each week allows us to be a part of daily and long term successes. Recruiting mentors and adjusting programs to meet the volume of youth in each particular program is a consistent task, (so sign up and tell your friends and family) that Y.E.S provides solution based programming--keeping the mentality that there is always room for improvement, growth, evaluation, relationship building, and working with community leadership. 

The individual student success of the Y.E.S program trails into the classroom, households, community and beyond. Saying YES to support our youth continues to show up in magical, impactful ways. Thank you for saying YES to local youth with us!
