Youth Empowered Solutions (YES!) is a nonprofit
organization that empowers youth, in partnership
with adults, to create community change. We do
this by hiring and training youth staff as advocates
who, in turn, train other youth to be advocates.
We equip high school-aged youth and their adult
allies with the tools they need to positively impact
adolescent health.
YES! provides training and support so that our
partners gain a heightened awareness of their
issue of interest and learn how to take advantage
of opportunities to engage in local, national,
and international advocacy work. Youth become
competent community advocates by receiving
training in such areas as public speaking, media
literacy, community assessment, gathering
community support and working with policy
makers.
