Mission: Youth Eastside Services is a lifeline for kids and families coping with challenges such as emotional distress, substance abuse and violence. Through intervention, outreach and prevention, YES builds confidence and responsibility, strengthens family relationships, and advocates for a safer community that cares for its youth. YES reaches kids and families in East King County in Washington state, serving the cities of Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, and Sammamish, as well as the Greater Eastside.
Programs: Through the efforts of approximately 75 employees, over 17,000 annual hours of volunteer service and a $3.2 million yearly budget, we provide individual and family counseling; substance abuse education, prevention and treatment; community- and school-based violence prevention, family support, consultation and training. Contributions from individuals, businesses, foundations and public agencies help fund our work, and on average, more than 84 cents of every dollar go directly to providing services to kids and their families. At YES, a family's inability to pay for services never stands in the way of their finding the help they need.
