| FORM 990, PARTIII, LINE 4A - PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENT | INDEPENDENT LIVING PROGRAM (ILP)Youth Empowerment Success Services (YESS) Youth Quest Independent Living Program (ILP) is a three-tier progressive initiative that stands at the forefront of supporting young individuals in their journey toward sustainable independence. Our program is meticulously structured, offering a comprehensive approach to nurturing the youth and equipping them with the necessary skills and knowledge to thrive in their pursuit of self-sufficiency.Since its inception in 2017, YESS has been dedicated to providing scattered-site supportive Independent Living Services, steadily expanding its reach. The year 2021 marked a significant milestone for our program, as we experienced unparalleled growth, catering to the needs of 52 young adults, courtesy of a federal pandemic extension that permitted voluntary placement beyond the 21st birthday.In 2022, Youth Empowerment Success Services (YESS) achieved significant milestones that significantly improved the lives of the young adults under its care. Among the participants, 57% transitioned into full-time employment, equipping them with essential skills and opening doors to long-term financial stability. Additionally, half of the youth obtained their high school diplomas while actively engaged in the Independent Living Program (ILP), creating a pathway for further educational and career opportunities. Moreover, there was an observed increase in the average length of stay, which rose from 9 months in 2021 to 10 months in 2022, indicating the program's success in extending crucial support and resources to young individuals. Notably, 14% of the young adults successfully secured a lease under their names, demonstrating their progress in acquiring independent living arrangements and fostering self-sufficiency. These achievements serve as a testament to the positive influence of YESS in empowering and guiding young adults toward a future marked by success and independence. |
