Our
Goals:
Healthy Children, Safe Children, Keeping Families Together
The Y.E.S. House philosophy
is to provide safety and compassion for healthy, emotional growth
to at-risk youth. We believe that children and their families are
one of our greatest resources and therefore, our programs build on
the assets of children and families. The Y.E.S. House programs promote
responsibility and choice-making. Learning to make positive choices
gives children confidence in their own ability to secure a successful
future. In finding solutions, we feel both parents and children are
equally responsible. We encourage extensive family involvement; and
provide an opportunity for all family members to re-group, learn new
skills, and resolve the issues that resulted in the need to call upon
our programs. We also believe that everyone has the right to be treated
with dignity and respect.
The 3
R’s: Respect for self, Respect for others, Responsibility for all your actions
