Mission Statement
Youth Enrichment Services (YES) inspires and challenges youth with physical and mental activities that foster life-long respect for self, others, and the environment.
Description
A large number of diverse Boston youth have access to an affordable and in-depth program that challenges them through outdoor sports and experiential education. They find a space to engage in a continuum of positive activities and quality experiences that foster character development and physical fitness. Youth build strong relationships with positive role models and take advantage of apprenticeship opportunities that build their technical and leadership skills. Youth Enrichment Services enjoys a recognizable presence in the community that attracts a large group of committed volunteers as well as community support and involvement.
