Our mission is to enrich the lives of Nashville’s youth by providing opportunities that encourage them to reach their full potential spiritually, academically, socially, and physically through daily programming in a Christ-centered community.
Join the teams supporting YES
Connect to one of our fundraisers, or start your own campaign! You can also designate us as the agency with Amazon Smiles & Kroger accounts.
Become a volunteer
It requires over 600 volunteers to successfully operate our programs each year, and we need you! Use your time to invest in Nashville's future.
"Youth Encouragement Services is a great foundation for children to build character and a strong relationship with God."
"My children love YES so much they beg me to take them early and let them stay late."
"I think what YES is doing is great. I really enjoy working with the kids and spending time with them. I feel like I actually make the kids happy here!"
Youth Encouragement Services, Inc. has open program staff positions for both the McIver and Lindsley Centers. If you truly want to make a lasting impact on the lives of kids in your community, follow the steps below!
