This past weekend, families gathered for a moving conversation with Sole’s Mom author Isabelle Camille and her son, Sky Guilbaud. Over shared Haitian food and powerful storytelling, they explored the journey of raising a transgender child and the importance of open dialogue, community, and love. Hosted by YES Institute, the event embodied what it means to create safe, supportive spaces for all families.

We’re proud to celebrate our long-standing partnership with the University of Miami, rooted in shared values of education and community care. Together, we’ve led courses, workshops, and research that support youth, families, and emerging professionals across disciplines.

We are grateful to Care Resource for the opportunity to support their teams with these conversations. Leadership development and resiliency are essential foundations for creating workplaces where people feel valued, supported, and able to thrive.

YES Institute is actively engaging with a variety of communities through a wide range of recent workshops and presentations. We partnered with the University of Miami to educate nursing students about inclusion and patient-centered care for gender- and orientation-diverse populations.

This summer, YES Institute invites you to be part of powerful conversations, meaningful connections, and community building—all in support of our mission to prevent youth suicide and create inclusive communities.
