Meet Faith, a remarkable testament to the transformative power of Youth Emergency Services (YES) in providing support to youth facing instability and homelessness.

When a bit of trouble forced him away from home, his mother Melina turned to YES for help. With nowhere else to go, YES provided Gabe with a safe shelter.

After fleeing an abusive relationship, Christiana found herself in a hotel with her infant daughter. Until she found YES.

Ethan’s journey with Youth Emergency Services (YES) is a testament to resilience and transformation, as his early years were fraught with disappointment and instability.

Meet Kayla, just one chapter in the impactful stories of homeless or near-homeless youth that Youth Emergency Services has supported throughout our 50-year history.

Over the past 50 years, Youth Emergency Services has helped countless youth on their way to self-sufficiency and strengthened relationships with so many partners in the Omaha Metro Community. As part of our 50th celebration, we are sharing 50 of these stories throughout 2024.

Summer is officially over and students all over the Metro Area have returned to school. This fall is going to be busy for us at YES, and we look forward to your support!

At Youth Emergency Services, we understand the importance of providing critical support to youth and young adults who may need our services.

I can't believe that we are already six months into the year! We are gearing up for a busy summer of community events, our golf tournament and, of course, Dance for a Chance.
