Youth facing crisis need a safe place, understanding support, and resources to help them build a better future. By supporting YESS, you are giving youth the opportunity to find stability, hope, and a path forward.
When Aniel first walked through the doors of YESS, he was looking for more than just a place to stay, he was looking for a fresh start. His journey, like so many others, was filled with challenges, but it was also filled with resilience, growth, and hope. This is Aniel’s story.

“Being able to find my way with the help of YESS allowed me to still be here to write this. Every day, I wake up with gratitude. I have lost so many people along the way, but I am still here. Without places like YESS, I might not be.”
In 2024–2025, we served 21% more youth than the previous year — and 37% of them were new to YESS.
Why does this matter?
This increase shows that the demand for our services is growing, and more young people are turning to YESS for the first time.
