YES Releases 2017 Impact Report

March 1, 2018 by Jamie Burch Leave a Comment

Fiscal Year 2017 was a year of great impact and achievement at YES. More than 1,600 youth explored the great outdoors with us – many for the first time. Over half of youth served were from YES’s target neighborhoods of Dorchester, Roxbury, and Mattapan. 75% of youth were from low-to-moderate income families.

We are inspired by the progress YES has made during Fiscal Year 2017. And, we are energized to continue moving towards our goal of doubling the number of youth served in our repeat engagement programs and high impact YES Academy programs.

Highlights from the year include:

  • 96% of Operation SnowSports youth reported increased confidence in facing new challenges and activities.
  • 100% of YES Academy seniors graduated high school and enrolled in college.
  • 74% of Track & Field youth reported feeling stronger, healthier, and faster after taking part in the program
  • 79% of Outdoor Adventure youth reported trying something new and challenging this year.
  • 80% of YES alumni reported taking on a leadership role on their college campus.
