Based in Edmonton, Youth Empowerment and Support Services (YESS) provides immediate and low-barrier shelter, temporary housing, and individualized wrap-around support for youth ages 15–24. We focus on working collaboratively with our youth-supporting partners on prevention and diversion out of homelessness. And ultimately, we aim to walk beside traumatized youth as they heal through relationships. Our vision is to walk beside traumatized youth on their journey towards healing and appropriate community integration.
