Your support is vital to our mission at YES Institute: To prevent suicide and ensure the healthy development of all youth through powerful communication and education on gender and orientation.
Here’s the difference you can make
Last year, fifty percent of youth and families received scholarships towards our courses thanks to YIPS member contributions – leaving no barriers to our work. Financial contributions like these allow our innovative programs to continue and flourish.
Members of YIPS donate $250 or more annually to YES Institute. Payments can be arranged to be on a flexible monthly, quarterly or yearly schedule. For instance, $250 goes a long way in that it provides access for one youth + family to attend an education course at YES Institute.
What’s in it for you?
YIPS members receive one complimentary YES Institute one-day course of their choice. They also enjoy access to networking events with other professionals in the community.
“I give because I know my contribution saves lives,” Amy Chavez, YIPS member.
