Youth Empowerment Solutions (YES)

Program Description

Youth Empowerment Solutions (YES) focuses on the youth in the program. Youth in the YES program work to change the community as a way to prevent youth violence. In YES, youth are part of the solution; they have power to make decisions about how to make their community more peaceful and stop youth violence. Youth and adults work together to accomplish the program goals. YES is a program that includes empowering processes for youth. It helps youth develop the skills they need to assess their community, and it gives them decision-making power in developing and implementing community change projects. YES empowering activities help youth avoid risky behaviors and develop into productive, healthy adults.
